Wind Mountain Ranch 

5.0

Stevenson, WA
  • Up to 175 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Wind Mountain is located along the Cascade Volcanic Arc, formed by basalt flows between 5 - 7 million years ago. Though relatively young by mountain standards, it has been weathered by wind and water since a time only the earth remembers. Humans are estimated to have settled in the area around 10,000 years ago, after the Missoula Floods carved rivers into the valley. Over time, these first people became the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde, Stl’pulmsh (Cowlitz), Yakama, Confederated Tribes of the Warm Siletz, Cayuse, Umatilla and Walla Walla. The land north of the Columbia River Gorge is their ancestral home. Wind Mountain carries significance to the Native Americans as a Spirit Quest destination and is home to a sacred archaeological site near the summit.

We had the most dreamy, luxurious, beautiful Gorge wedding at Wind Mountain Ranch September 2024. Being local to the Gorge, I was familiar with some of the WMR/Griffin House team and staff and absolutely loved working with them. Details are not missed and Annie was extremely helpful in helping with some of the details I was unsure of planning on my end as a bride and more, and making sure everything looked perfect on my end and theirs day of. My friends and family are still saying this is the most beautiful wedding they've ever attended. We stayed in the 7 cabins with friends and family the night before and were on site all day before the wedding which was relaxing and dreamy. Having a space for the bridal party to get ready but also spread out as needed in the cabins was perfect. We made breakfast in the cabin kitchens and had hair and makeup done on site. Annie, Marlowe, Courtney and the rest of their team are professionals and made my dreams come true. Having our guests brought in by a shuttle was required as with most Gorge weddings venues, and it was a fun way for our guests to be able to relax and have a safe ride to and from the venue. A dreamy wedding weekend I'll cherish forever and am so grateful for the WMR team for bringing this dream to reality. Can't wait to return for a weekend cabin stay sometime this year.

Possibly the best decision we made during our wedding process (aside from getting married), was choosing this venue. We were able to rent and use 3 locations throughout the weekend (Pavilion, House 3, and Thunder Island), and each was accommodating and gorgeous in its own way. The ease of having everything from welcome night, rehearsal, ceremony, and reception in the same spot made our logistics 10 times easier. Lots of wedding venues are gorgeous, but what sets the Locks apart is their this place is that they are truly flexible and hospitable. They will actually listen and try to make anything work for you! We had 200 guests so we really pushed the capacity, and the team worked flawlessly to make sure we got what we needed. Jeanetta (the manager) offered so much helpful perspective, was easy to reach and communicate with, and went the extra mile, even helping us put up and take down lights, bringing her personal tools. It felt like showing off the PNW to our east coast and Midwest guests. They were blown away, and so were we. If you want a low-stress, high-flexibility, and completely stunning outdoor wedding, this is the spot. Hidden gem for sure.
