Inn at Windmere

  • Inn Details

    The Inn At Windmere is a beautifully renovated 1910 country home just 3 miles off I-69 that offers six lovely guest rooms with private baths, 5 with king beds. The peaceful, elegant setting makes it a favorite place for a romantic getaway, while the convenient location and affordable price offer it as a good choice for travelers passing through. The Inn has 2 large rooms with all the amenities needed for scrapbooking or quilting weekends, business meetings or church retreats. Indoors are cozy fireplaces, grand piano, home gym, ping pong, and free wi-fi, while outdoors one can swing on the wrap-around porch, stroll around the beautiful gardens, take in a sunset from the gazebo, or enjoy a s-more at the firepit. The Inn At Windmere is close to the World War II and car museums for which Auburn is famous, numerous quaint shops in downtown Auburn, and many other attractions that will give anyone a pleasureable visit. Our goal at the Inn is to meet the needs of each guest so they can leave feeling refreshed and pampered--that they have experienced a true get-away.

    Went for a scrapbook retreat and had a wonderful time. First retreat I have ever come back from well rested! I felt so spoiled by the end of the weekend. One of the best surprises was getting so much help unloading and loading the car with all my supplies for the weekend. Beds were so nice and comfy and we had a wonderful jet tub in the bath. Defiantly recommend this B&B


    great weekend with the girls

    Went for a scrapbooking retreat, and we booked for next year already. Great atmosphere, wonderful home cooked meals, the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The owners are very friendly.

    Went for a scrapbooking retreat and had a lovely time. The Inn is so beautiful! Only regret was that I didn't take the time to sit out on the porch. Would recommend for any small event. Thanks again for the outstanding service!!!


    an incredibly welcoming and comfy place to stay!

    The hosts are very kind and have a calm approach toward guests. Breakfast was amazing - baked bacon, eggs, waffles with real maple syrup and homemade berry syrup (with big pieces of berry in it!), yogurt parfaits, juice, hot tea, coffee, and hashbrowns, all served on fine china. Robes, dual sinks, really great moisturizing shampoo/conditioner, and a comfy bed with floral comforter were in the Windmere Suite. This suite is also in a separate wing.


    Best B & B ever!

    My husband and I recently celebrated our 50th weddding anniversary by staying at the Inn at Windmere. Our stay could not have been more special mostly in part to the comforts of the inn and the lovely couple who run it. They welcomed us as if we were family and shared some wonderful stories with us. We had an amazing breakfast and were served in a beautiful room with lovely table service. We felt very special and would reccomend the Inn at Windmere to anyone visiting the Auburn, Indiana area. Please consider this inn as it far exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Susie & Paul, for giving us a time to remember.
