Rooms are spacious and so welcoming. Fireplace, large soaking tubs and very comfortable beds.

Fireside Lounge is an intimate fun environment with great performers. Fun outdoor space with gas firepit.

Barking Frog food is so tasty and well presented whether in the restaurant or room service.

Service... Absolute top notch. So respectful and willing to accommodate quickly.

We had dinner at the Barking Frog of Willows Lodge for our wedding anniversary. The food was delicious! The staff were pleasant and accommodating, and all signed a card for us. Rochelle took care of us, and went above & beyond, passing on compliments to the chef and the bar. My husband's cocktail was the best he's had anywhere while out. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. We would have preferred a quieter, more secluded table, but we weren't the only couple celebrating a milestone that evening.

My wife and I absolutely love this place. Everything from the location, the amenities, customer sevice etc., are perfect. If we could live there, we would.

The food is also insanely good. The Barking Frog is the restaurant that does all the room service. 5 star quality, all around. They even have a doggie menu for canine visitors. We got our pup two dinners the two nights we were there.

Cannot wait for our next trip to Willows.

I took my mother and wife here for the mother's day brunch. My wife enjoyed her egg white omelet and chicken sausage. My salmon was delicious and after we walked in the gardens and met their pigs in training for truffleing. A great way to spend mother's day.

Good food, good staff, great atmosphere, great rooms, beautiful outdoor setting.

I was here briefly for a work retreat and it was well set up for what we needed. I plan to go back for a stay-cation sometime. It'll be a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle, right near a well-known winery, with a spa and great room setup for relaxation .

I visited for a few days for a work conference at Microsoft. Quite a swanky place. I'm not a wine person so the local vineyard vibe isn't my thing but the area is pretty nice. Expect fairly heavy traffic to the area Microsoft campuses.

What a wonderful venue with an incredible staff and all of those special extras from a first class operation. Highly recommend Willows Lodge and Jen with catering sales was outstanding to work with

The staff are all excellent! Friendly, courteous, but never too much. Respectful of your privacy, but always there should you need anything or have a question. Rooms are nice, nicer, and nicest... even the nice rooms feature thoughtful and beautiful NW design, large soaking tubs (as well as showers) and optional turndown service with little chocolates. There's the Fireside lounge, the Barking Frog, and the Herb Farm for food on site; though only the Barking Frog has breakfast. Red Hook brewery is just next door. And there's a spa. Check their website for hours and menus.

This is a fantastic little villa get away. If you love country loving and also love wine(s) Ian variety of flavors, you'll have a fantastic time. Local shopping villa has something for everyone as well.

This spot is great for a quick romantic getaway if you're from Seattle. Lots of great tasting rooms for wineries within walking distance. The hotel makes a huge effort to make your special occasions feel extra special. The 'nicest' rooms have awesome luxurious jetted tubs that are super relaxing. (These are the rooms we've booked on our visits.)

Also if you're traveling with your dog -- they go above and beyond to make the pet comfortable (you can even spoil them with room service -- which might seem excessive at first, but it meant that when we forgot to pack our dog's food, there was an easy and delicious alternative for him).

It was great upon arrival and check in despite a small parking lot. The room was great for a first impressi ok n, but it had a dirty toilet, and guest services talked too much for me to explain why I was requesting they send housecleaning again. Housecleaning didn't clean the toilet as I had hoped, so I cleaned it myself, which wouldn't be a problem if the rates weren't so high. The spa was nice, no complaints. Our dinner server was slow at The Barking Frog. A couple was seated after us, and they got through the full dinner before us. Sadly all gratuity goes only to the server, even though the other people who tended to our table were far more prompt. The drawn bath was nice, but they missed the rose petals as advertised as part of the package - minor letdown that hurts when you think about the cost of package you are paying for. Hotel was nice, staff was nice. Vastly overpriced for details they missed througout.

Excellent Christmas dinner with my parents. I had the tuna crudo and my mum had the Apple and celeriac soup. Then we all had delicious tenderloin. Attentive, friendly service. Good environment.

We sampled each of the appetizers & draft cocktails, they were excellent! The waiter was very attentive and informed. The live music was awesome. It's very popular so get there early. Highly recommend for a dinner, a celebration or relaxing time with a loved one.

Lovely guitar music to enjoy happy hour to. Unfortunately the happy hour at The Willows isn't as awesome as it once was. Still nice. Just not awesome. The selection is much more limited.

Perfect location for special events or even a getaway for the weekend! Complementary wine bottle for your room and a sample at check in. During cold weather their apple cider is delightful. The garden is beautiful, they have a trail you can bike or walk in the backyard

Great

Took my wife to dinner at the Barking Frog restaurant at the Willows Lodge, and had one of the best meals I have ever experienced. We ordered the tasting menu, and each chose different items for each of the four courses so that we could have a wider sampling. The standouts had to be the Salmon Tartare and the Foie Gras, but these were quite simply the best of the best, as everything was superb.

The service was impeccable! The front desk, the Barking Frog, even the man who brought in an extra cost for us, they all had kind genuine smiles and were incredibly helpful. I also went to the spa and once again the service was fantastic, the staff went above and beyond and I felt utterly pampered. That area of Woodinville is quaint and beautiful, the room was also excellent, so cozy, awesome bathtub and I love the mirror tv. Sitting by the fire to wind down was the perfect end to my night.

We had a great dinner on the fireside lounge. The food was great, atmosphere was perfect, and the service was fantastic. We would definitely do it again, especially after a long day of wine tasting.

The lodge was very nice as a venue for a large party in their banquet room. Everything was great with the service and facilities, although parking was limited, and we had to park a decent distance from the lodge- out in the "over-flow" lot.

Second time I've come to the spa and jacuzzi is not operating. It was disappointing. They should offer scented warm neck pillows in place of jacuzzi or discount as that is a big part of the experience. Massage and waiting room were nice. Cannot wait for the sauna to be finished.

Greeted with wine... to start with. Our accomodations and stay were top notch. Even perusing the grounds and taking photos was a nice experience. (Plants, vegetables herbs, vines, some family animals...) Very peaceful place. We had a wine accident late at night in our room and were fairly distraught thinking it was going to be very problematic. Instead, a nice woman came and cleaned everything up, insisted we not help and not worry, then on top of that, she replaced the wine and gave us chocolate. A+ customer service. Tip: Spring for a room with a jet tub.

An excellent stay in the midst of the Covid outbreak. We stayed here in June 2020 for our mini-moon following our small wedding. Despite the fire alarm going of in the middle of the night, unhelpful spa staff and outdated rooms, we found the hotel comfortable and quiet. We called the spa several times to book a service and they never called us back. We had to finally walk to the door and they gave us a real attitude. It would be helpful to have better communication from the spa with guests as well as more genuine and kind service. Once we had our couples massage the service took a change and was excellent.

Nevertheless, the hotel grounds were immaculate and close to many bike paths, wineries and restaurants.

PRO TIPS:
Unplug your noisy mini-fridge otherwise will hum all night
The beds are very comfortable and quiet
Book a reservation at the Barking Frog
Walk the grounds to locate the truffle pigs
Bring your own wine/blanket & sit for hours at one of the many outdoor gas fireplaces

Beautiful wood appointed hotel and spa. We got the "nicest" room and got upgraded to a suite. The room is well appointed with jetted tub. It's not really that secluded of a place but nonetheless very relaxing and comfortable. In room dining provided by Barking Frog easily makes it one of the best hotels we have been to so far in that regards. Its in a very convenient location and they have bikes you can use to get around the area including the Sammammish River Trail and the wine tasting rooms. Great place for our little staycation and recommended for all travelers.

We had dinner at Barking Frog. Its our second visit, and we had an awesome time both times! Servers were super polite, attentive and knowledgeable, the flavor compositions of everything we've tried were amazing. The tasting menu is a nice way to try a few more items without breaking (too much of) the bank.

Staff was fantastic. Service was amazing. The food at the Barking Frog was delicious. I enjoyed the four course tasting menu as a way to try everything and still finish it all. The Spa had an amazing couples massage for me and my wife, although they didn't say that getting a deep tissue massage would be extra. It was only $10 more, but I would have liked to know up front.

This place is great! My wife and I came here for the start of our honeymoon and they treated us like royalty. Chocolates and a very nice note wishing us a happy honeymoon on the table. Great privacy and prompt service when asked. We will DEFINITELY come back. Only negative to this place is a small refrigerator and no microwave but other than that...incredible, they set the bar very high

Everything about the experience here is top notch. The rooms are well laid out, the staff is very helpful, the atmosphere is more relaxed than any place I've ever stayed.
If you haven't been here, you're missing out on one of the most pleasurable stays you may ever have.

Had lunch at the barking frog. Several minor issues with orders not coming as requested at my table (small things like dressing requested on the side being delivered already applied, drinks not being delivered around the same time as others ordered at the same time) brought the experience down a little, and aside from the beignets, which were killer, the food was not impressive. Greasy lamb burger, biscuits and gravy without much soul... Nothing terrible, just... Average.
