I cannot recommend this resort enough. My boyfriend and I got it through Dealfind and hoped for the best. What we got was so much more! Our charming room came with a fireplace and we upgraded to a lakeview room with jacuzzi. Our first night there we took full advantage of the outdoor hot tub under the stars and the... More

We went to Westwind Inn during the first week in January and it was absolute bliss! Being Torontonians it was wonderful to finally see the stars for once, and just listen to the absolute quiet of the night. We were the only ones at the entire resort (winter really is their quiet time) and we were left with complete use... More

I was here for a wedding in September and let me tell you, the customer service and value was sub-par. Absolutely terrible. It ended up costing almost $400 per night because of the dummy fees. They add 10% "facilities" fee on your stay, but not just on your room, on all the fees (taxes, breakfast). Not only that, it was... More

This entire review is full of untruths. It was a large wedding that took over the entire resort with exclusive use for the entire weekend. It was a great success and everyone including the bride, groom and her parents were very happy and full of compliments. They even had a pig roast & bon fire on the Friday which everyone... More

My husband took me to westwind in for our anniversary, and surprised me with an overnight stay in one of their chalets. It was by far one of the most memorable experiences of my life. The food was wonderful, the scenery was breath taking and the room was only something I could dream of having in my own home. I... More

Needed a break to spoil myself, and my husband. Was greeted with friendly staff who could tell me about the area, what was available. The Inn is well cared for, from the cozy rooms with romantic fireplaces, and some with jacuzzi tubs, to the abundent gardens and breathtaking scenic dining area. With the hustle and bustle of everyday i really... More

Beautiful location and grounds. Chalet was everything we expected (cozy, clean, and a great view). Staff were very friendly. Dining room view can not be better, but the main menu selections were boring and did not change during our four day stay. At the time of booking we were informed of a reunion taking place during our stay but were... More

My husband and I spend one night at the Westwind Inn and had a very nice stay. We knew before going by reading the reviews that it wasn't a five star resort so nothing was a surprise to us when we arrived. The Inn was perfect for us as it was quiet, peaceful, and the grounds were lovely. It was... More

After reading some of the reviews here i was abit nervous about what to expect. My fears were put to rest the moment we arrived. Those looking to be waited on hand and foot, to have pristine beaches or to expect "fluffy robes and slippers" (all reviews ive read) should go elsewhere. Those who want to relax, unwind and leave...

Thank you so much for the kind words. It was heart warming to read. Made it all worthwhile! Unfortunately for us, most of our many happy satisfied repeat guests do not write to Tripadvisor. Thanks again! More

Food was excellent, must have soup of the day. Rooms were cozy and very clean. Its nice to put away life's distractions and enjoy the peace and solitude. The only flaw is that the lake is extremely weedy for swimming. More

We stayed for 3 days at the Westwind Inn. Coming from Niagara Falls and going through Toronto was a bit stressful with all the traffic, but then it thins out and you are in a beautiful, peaceful area of Canada called the Kawartha Lakes Region. The Westwind Inn is a quiet, remote Inn that is the perfect place for couples... More
