We went to Deerhurst this past summer and had an extremely nice time. Our room was exceptionally large, it was clean, and it was very quiet -- which was nice. I've been to other hotels where I could hear my neighbors through the walls. We played a little golf, but spent a good portion of the week hiking in the... more

Attended work function here, I'd heard a lot of really positive things about the place, so was really looking forward to it. I was staying in the main lodge in a hotel style room, the bad; carpet was stained in places, furniture was a little scruffy and no pens or notepads supplied which I thought was a little odd. The... more

Hello from Muskoka Cityboy NZ: We really appreciate your review "resort itself was amazing, great food, grounds and facilities." Notepads and pens are a standard in every Deerhurst guest room and we're sorry yours was missed! Thanks for highlighting our hard working staff as well.

We were excited to be able to stay here for our 10th anniversary. Since our anniversary is in the fall, we were really hopeful that the fall colour up at Deerhurst would be at peak - and it was! Stunning doesn't begin to describe the colour. We were in awe. We also went up to Algonquin Park for some hiking... more

Deerhurst has been a part of our summer vacations for many of our summers for the past twenty years… Have stayed in the condo’s and the main building (sports) and a small older hotel by the lake (not sure what they call that). We love this place! The rooms, the food, the golf and the wild life (not party wild... more

Dear Travel Guy 045: The team at Deerhurst appreciates the time you've taken to highlight your memorable summer vacations here over the past 20 years. For clarity to other potential TripAdvisor guests, Pavilion guestrooms are located in the main hub of the resort. The Sports Villas (junior suites) are adjacent to the main building. And I think the "smaller hotel...

It’s seen better days! We concur; not worth the cost. Fortunately for us we had two free nights at the Deerhurst – Pavilion Room. Great Bed & Linens!!!! (see photo) And nice hallways says my boyfriend… seriously though the hallways were clean and looked & felt grand– but the grounds (pools and tennis courts) and some of the other buildings... more

Hello from Muskoka: Glad you enjoyed your bed at Deerhurst featuring our recently installed all-white bedding package. More importantly wanted to sincerely apologize that when you were upgraded to a garden view room we did not notice the issue with the ceiling. This area has since been fully repaired. Your comment about leaves has also been passed on to our...

My friend from England was visiting so I booked a couple of nights in Muskoka and stayed at the Deerhurst. We were really disappointed with our stay particularly considering how much it cost for 2 nights. When we arrived at the resort we were really excited as the the grounds looked so beautiful and stunning. We chose a room right... more

Hello Young Brit: Wanted to let you know that part of Deerhurst's guest service standard includes asking each departing customer about their experience. We sincerely apologize that no one inquired about the specifics of your stay when you were checking out. However, please know that we are looking in to the "niggles" you specified. Also, due to our rugged terrain,...

Restaurants were bad. Place is cold and sterile, totally un-Muskokan. Town of Bracebridge is lovely. The golf courses are ok but the amenities (pool...) are great. more

I was a little aprehensive when I read all the negative feedback on this resort. I understand all the comments and expectations, but as a frequent traveler I found this resort lovely and warm, clean and relaxing. The beds are amazing - layered in white sheets, duvet and layers of white duvet covers...both down and synthetic pillows. The rooms are... more

Dear Zim Zim 1 in Washington State: Thanks for making the trip to Deerhurst Resort and posting your comments about our rooms, golf and spa on TripAdvisor. We're delighted you enjoyed our crisp, all-white bedding package topped off with that big stack of pillows! For other readers, the nearby ice cream stand this member is referring to is Huntsville's outpost...

Presented in United Kingdom travel brochures as a luxury venue. At best we would give it two stars. Stayed for two nights in a top floor "Sports Villa". Beware they have no lifts so you have to cart heavy luggage up several flights of stairs. Living room (includes kitchenette) and bedroom were of a reasonable size. Most facilities you could... more

We went to Deerhurst for the long weekend. Aug 1st to Aug 3rd. We arrived early and was pleased that they had our room ready. My husband and I had gone there about 5 years ago. I have to tell you, it has not changed. You pay for a 5 star but do not receive it. I understand it has... more
