Windmill Wellness Ranch Retreat & Rehabilitation - Canyon Lake, Texas

Kyle Faughn

This was my first time ever coming to a rehabilitation facility to help with my addiction and I couldn’t have asked for a better place. A lot of the staff made my experience really great from the techs to therapists. The classes, meetings, and routines they have implemented while navigating your recovery experience is amazing. They also have brain frequency treatment onsite and I highly recommend taking part in that. They have several amenities to make your stay there enjoyable while navigating through your recovery. The foundation Windmill helped me establish for my recovery and sobriety is more than I could have ever hoped for. Shout out to Coach and Jules, Caroline, Caesar, Harold, Ben, Sarah and many others on the staff, Thank y’all!!!

What an amazing place, that is Windmill. I was broken & sick I found a place that helped
pick up the broken pieces. Just like anything else, if you want to get better--we have to decide for ourselves. Windmill Ranch was exactly what I needed in every aspect of recovery. These people believe in what they are doing and it was a very, very positive experience for this Okie from Muskogee.The regime from top to bottom, was helpful in my individual recovery. From the medical staff, therapists, wellness advocates and recovery coaches were always on the same page. Communication, between all of these people supplied me with the care and compassion needed for my sobriety. I can't say enough great things about this place. I have met lifelong friends and family, going through the same life issues.Coach & Jules are always there to give a boost. These people have a calling and God bless them for being so loving and caring. Nursing staff is second to none--wellness advocates were always trying to be there in case of any issues. I give Windmill the highest recommendation, check them out-- you won't be disappointed.

Windmill Wellness Ranch is nothing short of miraculous. After 90 transformative days, I emerged as a completely renewed individual, far from the hopeless person who first walked through their doors. The cutting-edge therapies, particularly the brain frequency sessions, unlocked dormant areas of my mind, enhancing my memory and impulse control in ways I never thought possible.

Each day was filled with enlightening classes that armed me with the tools to confront my emotions directly, empowering me to leave behind the crutch of substances. The staff at Windmill Wellness Ranch are in a league of their own—remarkably knowledgeable, profoundly compassionate, and unwaveringly dedicated to the success of every individual. Jules, aka the dragon slayer is one kick a$$ lady, she pours her heart and soul into her work. Coach always found a way to lighten the mood and could always make me laugh. Caroline was my favorite wellness advocate, she was simply the best. They taught me how to love myself again and I am forever grateful for all of them and the others that made this place a home away from home.

The facilities are impeccable, a true sanctuary that meets the highest standards of comfort and care. Windmill Wellness Ranch didn't just help me recover; it gave me a new lease on life, filled with purpose and clarity. I owe my vibrant new existence to this extraordinary place. Thank you, Windmill, for teaching me not just how to survive, but how to truly live a meaningful life.

My experience was great at Windmill Wellness Ranch. The owner, Shannon, Jewels, and the staff made me feel very welcomed. Everyone treated me with respect and truly cared about my well being. The doctors, nurses, medical assistants, food workers, therapists, coaches, and everyone truly made my experience a great one. What helped me also, was the multi approach: they focused on the physical, mental, social, and spiritual. All of that helped me to make progress in my overall health. Windmill Wellness Ranch is a great place! I am very grateful to them!

I can't say enough about Windmill Wellness Ranch. If you're looking for a space to heal, look no further. From mental health to addiction, Windmill is the place to address whatever you may be battling and allow you to become the person you were fully meant to be.
I knew that I needed help, and reached out to several rehab facilities. Amanda answered the phone when I called WWR, and I already felt like I was family. The process to get in was effortless, and they genuinely cared about me and my recovery from the start. Most treatment centers begin with detox and launch you into immediate vigorous programming which is disheartening and exhausting, and other programs provide the detoxification process then release you back into the wild world without addressing the root of the problem. At Windmill, it's completely different. They dive deep into the individual, and are extremely detailed in the entirety of your stay including mouth-watering meals, breathtaking scenery, therapeutic intervention, brain frequency, inclusive activities, and educational/applicable classes and programming.
Shortly after the welcoming phone call and a team of staff who made a way for me to get there as soon as possible, I arrived at Windmill. The Wellness advocate Lauren as well as other staff greeted me and assisted me in every step of the way to get checked in and comfortable. During detox, the nursing staff is attentive, kind and caring ensuring that you get optimal rest, delightful snacks and food, and they do not rush the process of REST. The program here is seriously impeccable. When I say they paid attention to detail, I mean EVERY detail. Every meal was DELICIOUS and the kitchen staff is friendly and makes the best food (seriously, I miss their food...), their wellness advocates do just that: advocate for you and care about your well-being, health, and progress. The recovery coaches, nursing staff, therapists, admissions and office staff, clean living coordinator, chefs, activity coordinator... they all play an intentional role and collectively ensured that my stay/ experience as well as my healing and recovery was top tier.
There is no comparison to their programming. I have several friends who have been to rehab, and I met several folks here at the ranch who had tried their fair share of other wellness facilities, and they all agree upon one thing: At Windmill, you HEAL. I feel blessed beyond measure that I had the opportunity to heal and get sober at this beautiful 76 acre ranch. My body, mind and spirit have returned tenfold. The light within me that had become SO dim is brighter than it's ever been. My relationship with my higher power whom I choose to call God is stronger than it's ever been, and the people who work here displayed how much God loves me in human form.
I definitely took a part of Windmill with me when I left, and I cannot wait to return to their alumni meetings as well as continue to keep in touch with the folks I met here and the friends I never knew I needed.
My life has completely changed, and I'm so thankful to God for sending me to Windmill for the most unforgettable healing journey to sobriety. Being in recovery feels phenomenal, and I highly recommend this space to everyone. Shout out to my AMAZING therapist, Sarah V, who intentionally and thoroughly worked me through emotional trauma; through her therapeutic intervention I learned how to love myself again.
Shout out to the wellness advocates who work so hard to make ALL clients feel comfortable and assure that NOTHING gets in the way of your progress. Coach and Jules are a dynamic duo... Coach had me back in the gym and on a healthy yet delicious meal regime, as well as provided groovy and inclusive activities for all at the ranch, and Jules works her butt off to make sure we get the ultimate experience and advocates like hell for every client. I was a shell of my potential self when I walked into rehab, and I've come out with such pure sanctification.

Wow, this place really cares. Admissions team really kept me in the loop leading up to my admission. There is always fear of change and they set me at ease. The nursing department made my detox easy. The advocates, recovery coaches, therapist genuinly cared and made me feel like family. The programming was individualized and gave me choices. 60 days later, I feel amazing. Thanks to all of you. Windmill you changed my life.

Windmill Wellness, in my opinion, is the best facility in the country, bar none. It changed my life. Every aspect of Windmill is professional. The wellness advocates, counselors, recovery coaches, kitchen staff, admissions team, and the nursing staff all played a vital role in my recovery. Jules was the first voice I heard, and she made sure I was taken care of the entire time. Each variable of this magnificent place is impeccable. They care about each individual. They are not there to dry you out and send you on your way. They get down to the meat and potatoes of addiction and mental health. I highly recommend the brain frequency treatments as well. It was an important variable in my recovery. It enhanced my memory and brought to life, the resting areas of my brain.

Physical health is important as well. Coach will go to lengths to ensure that each individual is receiving the care they need to become physically healthy. He is also a professional and an overall solid human being. He truly cares, and did just that for me. Each client is unique and he will create a plan for each person to increase the overall physical health, which in turn plays a big role in our mental health. There is no better person for the job.

The facilities are top notch as well. The beautiful property was a massive part of my recovery. The tranquility that the ranch offers through its nature is hard to come by. It allowed me to gain serenity and much more. So many vital aspects to recovery lie in the natural aspects of the ranch.

The community activities were also impressive. There were many activities to entertain and unite the entire community. There is something for everyone to enjoy! These activities were another very important part of my recovery.

I have trouble finding words for this place. It allowed me to have meaning for life again. Every single person employed at windmill had an impact on me. From residential to the clean living program, there was always professionalism. Sarah K was one who helped me more than I can explain. She truly cares and is the perfect person for her position. The entire staff will bend over backwards to ensure that you are comfortable and moving in the right direction. Windmill Wellness Ranch and the staff have my utmost respect. This place is phenomenal, and I would recommend it to anyone seeking help with any addiction and/or mental health issues. I live life today with a purpose. I will forever be grateful for this wonderful place. Thank you for changing my life.

Going to Windmill Wellness Ranch was the best decision I have ever made…. for myself and for my family. The level of care, compassion, and love is incredibly genuine and intense, and continues on even after you ‘graduate and go home’. The facility and staff are amazing in every sense of the word. My life has changed, and is continuing to change, for the better.
