Very clean, very well kept up. Lots of space. We’re a group of quilter friends from three different areas of WI. Windmill Retreat is the perfect meeting spot for us. It’s location is equal distance from each of our homes. This was our second stay here (3rd for one of us). Plan on coming again next year.

Very clean, well equipped house. Layout is a little odd, but it met our needs welk
Other than a problem with the front door lock, our stay was very pleasant. We like to cook and the kitchen was very well equipped. House was very clean. Beds were very comfortable.

Beautiful House
I wish I could have spent more time at the house but as the mother of the Bride I only got to sleep there. The others staying were able to enjoy the beauty of the house and area. Everything you need is included and beds were very comfy according to everyone. Thank you for having salt available for the driveway as we had ice and snow that night. Only downside was not knowing you need to leave bathroom doors and bedroom door open downstairs to warm the bedroom up.

A little slice of Heaven
From my mother: Your home was the perfect place for my family. My daughter got married at the Chapters. This area and home was so relaxing, peaceful, and welcoming when anxiety was high! Phenomenal sunsets! The front porch was my family’s favorite spot! There was so much space for everyone to unwind and do their thing!! We played games, had a small brunch the morning after the wedding with family. Pam is the perfect host! She thought of everything! One of the best amenities provided was plenty of towels for our four day stay with the house full of people. And the hot water never ran out! Pretty amazing! The beds and linen were immaculate and very comfortable. The home was spectacularly clean. She had indoor and outdoor games and a list of fun things to do, restaurants to go, places to see. She didn’t leave out a detail!! The Windmill Retreat is beautiful and we plan to come and stay again! Thank you for allowing us to share your home! Again, it was absolutely perfect!!

The Quilting Gals
Loved it. Wish it had been warmer so we could have set up Our tables on porch(es) but no control over weather. We had a little mini retreat for five sewing gals. It worked out fantastic. All want to do it again. Beautiful home, super clean. Our only real issue was all the steps but we knew and managed.
