Westwind Resort

I have been going here for 62 years. I have known all the owners.
They were all good but Bob is the BEST! Westwind isnt meant to be an all inclusive secured fortress vacation. It is like being able to go to the beach every day and enjoying the beauty of Lake Namakogan. The cabins are supposed to be rustic housekeeping cabins, not a suite at the Ritz. You are not supposed to be in the cabin anyway, you should be out on the Lake! Think about this for rustic...the first 3 years that I when to Westwind (1958 thru 1960) there were no bathrooms, just an outhouse, no shower. There was a pump at the kitchen sink where you could pump cold water into a pan to heat on the wood stove that doubled as a heater. Then my Grandmother would make the best bacon and pancakes...on the wood stove. There was no actual range.
Westwinds beautiful sand beach out weighs anything negative you may think about the rustic cabins.
Go for a swim
Take a boat ride
Go water boarding
Get an inter tube and just float
Rent a boat and ski
Sit on the beach and enjoy the beauty
Westwind is meant to be a place to hang out while you enjoy the splendor of Lake Namakogan.

18 years coming here. It's not about fancy modern cabins. you have the essentials you need. Great sandy beach and owner is relaxed/ laid back.

Great Resort, not the place if you need someone to wipe you hinder. Everything you need to get away with your family to enjoy time together.

Great views, easy access to many local attractions, and Bob is a wonderful, friendly host!

We spend at least one weekend a summer here, look forward to going back this year!

Very nice resort and a clean cabin.

15 plus years can't get enough !!!

Our family gathers every other year this time at the Westwind. We will be returning in 2024. The beach and lake were amazing. Our host Bob was wonderful, very accommodating and not at all intrusive. We rented the pantoon for the week - a must recommendation - fit the 12 of us perfectly. Cabins are a little dated but clean. Each one has a covered porch and comfortable patio set each facing lake. Picnic tables, lawn chairs, lots of charcoal grills, canoes, paddleboats, swim raft and benches surrounding campfire. There was a large grassy area between our 4 cabins to play games. Our family had a great time!

Love this place, just wish the mattresses were decent. The resort has been quiet, and it is definitely a family place. People go to bed early, and it's nice and quiet. (of course that may not always be the case but I think Bob tries to keep it that way) overall, it's a nice place. Super small bedrooms and outdated cabins but if you're not picky this place is great. There isn't a main office/shop unlike most resorts, so make sure you get everything in town.

Great Sandy Beach on a quiet lake. Cabins are nice.

Some updating would help. Great rates

The owner comes over every 5 seconds to bother you especially during meals. Half the stoves don’t work, there’s mice, the cleaning lady does nothing and still asks for tips. Great view but the owner is too cheap to keep up w the place

Can I give ZERO stars? Very old, run down cabins. You're better off pitching a tent. We rented two cabins for ourselves and our adult children and grandchildren. Mice in one cabin...many. It was infested. Had to move out....couldn't stay even one night there. Plumbing in another cabin wasn't working. We had to rent a room at a nearby resort because it was uninhabitable. Owner promised compensation/refund but we were never given one. We were then moved to two other cabins. These were better, but even then they were filthy and old. We all left early. We love Lake Namakagon, but will never stay at WestWind again. The only positives I can give...great views, nice beach, decent boats to rent.
