Hi Matt. It's always great to see new users here on OSM, and I hope you stay and contribute.
That said you edits so far give me some concern. From your edit summaries I understand that you do not want Westwind to appear on the map. I understand that it is privately owned land, but to my understanding there is no prohibition on adding that to the map. I'll also point out that some of your paying guests may find having the road and paths of Westwind mapped to be useful.
As such, I've added back the things you'd removed.
I've also added `access=private` tags to all the trails (the road had been tagged as such all along) and the two gates that appear on the map at present. This means the trails show up more grey, and people will not be routed on them.
This reflects the situation in reality quite well, as far as I can tell; ie there are trails, the trails are closed to the public.
I will point to this question on the OSM help site: https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/54972
I hope this satisfies your concerns, but if not there are options open to you: add a question to the help site I linked to above may help you understand how OSM deals with private land, and you *may* get an opinion that differs from the one I've given you. Additionally you could email the Data Working Group (data@osmfoundation.org), who deal with legal concerns.
All the best, and I hope this message is helpful and makes sense. If you have any questions I'd be happy to do my best to answer.
