Every corporate gathering is transformed into a unique and memorable event at Willows Lodge. Located just 30 minutes from Seattle, the scenic resort reigns over five acres of thriving gardens in the Sammamish River Valley, home to more than 100 wineries and tasting rooms, including Chateau Ste. Michelle. In addition, the lodge itself houses two of the most renowned restaurants in the region, Barking Frog and The Herbfarm Restaurant, making it a particularly attractive destination for companies who wish to entertain employees and clients with the very best that the Pacific Northwest has to offer.
From leisurely retreats to formal board meetings, Willows Lodge presents an ideal setting for corporate events up to 150 people. Indoors, seven meeting rooms with more than 5,000 square feet of space come equipped with the latest technology, while the lush gardens and gazebo just outside invite impromptu brainstorming sessions as well as alfresco luncheons and banquets. Catering can be arranged off-site, as well, thanks to the Barking Frog Mobile Kitchen.
Also of interest is the neighboring state-of-the-art aerial adventure park, where attendees bond during various team-building activities. At the end of the day, guests can unwind at the full-service spa, or in the 84 spacious guest rooms, each as rustic and serene as the resort itself.

We just wrapped up a 3 event series at Willows Lodge and it was fantastic! We've used the property a few times in the past, but they have truly dialed in all of the details now. The staff went over and above to make our event great and the property looked fantastic. The food was wonderful and had great variety. The easy access to wineries made for great off property dinner options as well. We will definitely be back.

It is rare that I'm involved with a program that goes off without a hitch. The group had an amazing time, and I've received nothing but positive feedback. Kuddos to the Willows Lodge team.
Kelly Devlin, C. Corporate Planner
It was an AMAZING event and if I have anything to do with it, we will be back next year! The entire Willows staff was very welcoming and helpful throughout the entire event.

The meeting went very well and the objectives were met. The Real Estate attorneys and staff were very impressed by the service, food and beverages, as well as the accommodations at Willows. Their team did an amazing job!

This is far & away one of my favorite venues! Not only the cozy environment…..they make all the planning so easy. I can't tell you how much I appreciate that!

The Willows experience is something to behold. There was not a thing we needed, asked for, or that wasn’t anticipated for us by their team. The food was amazing as is the entire property. And, referencing their team, you just don’t get service like that anywhere anymore and it was just so genuine.

They took service to another level. Their power of service has positively impacted my customer loyalty.

Key reasons for making a memorable location: The food, in this case, was unbelievable. The rooms were delightful. I facilitated for a client with 30 of their employees, and at the end of the day, I felt like the location / food / service helped ME make this a memorable day for my client. The location was my secret sauce – and yet, I hadn’t even been the one to select the site. It supported me anyway and allowed everyone to focus on learning.

If I had to sum it up in one word, I’d have to say—PERFECT! I have done a lot of large events at different facilities and the Willows Lodge was BY FAR the easiest I have ever worked with. Everything was perfect, the food was delicious and gorgeous, the accommodations were unbelievable and the meeting rooms were great. No matter what I needed they were on it! Exemplary service—professional and courteous at all times. Our surveys following the event were unanimous that the Lodge was the perfect setting for our retreat.

Whenever out of state employees or customers ask me for a recommended hotel for their visit and/or meeting, I always suggest Willows Lodge in Woodinville, WA – especially if they have never been to Washington State before. No other hotel captures the flavor of the Pacific Northwest better. Now don't quote me, but I believe the number of wineries in and around Willows Lodge is about 18, which also makes this location a wonderful weekend getaway. Some of the most successful meetings I've planned locally have taken place at Willows Lodge. The service, amenities and location are truly five-star. They have an on-site restaurant (The Barking Frog), spa and team-building challenge course, as well as a world renowned restaurant (The Herb Farm) on their property. You can rent a bike for the nearby bike trails, grab a beer at the Red Hook Brewery, or take their property dog for a walk. I'm sure I'm forgetting other activities, but this I know: everyone I send there always calls to thank me for telling them about Willows Lodge.
