I have been going to Muskoka almost every summer for my whole life and I don't mind roughing it - whether camping, or staying at rustic cottages like they have at Billie Bear Resort (a very beautiful location close to Deerhurst, but very basic & no frills). This year, I wanted to take my son up to Muskoka for the... more

We just returned from the Deerhurst Resort and all agree it was just perfect. Don't listen to the negative reviews. The service was extremely friendly and accomodating. We stayed in the "Pavillion", which is the main building. There were 2 Queen beds, TV, a mini-fridge, safe, and a walk-in closet. The room was immaculate and well decorated with a "country"... more

Location: Deerhurst is a resort about 200km northeast of Toronto in Huntsville Ontario Checkin: A bit of a wait. There does not seem to be enough staff at the reception. Facility: A very large property that it has its own shuttles between various locations. It has a golf course, several outdoor pools, a natural beach area (small), a for fee... more

We booked at the "Special Summer" 50% reduced rates into the Luxury Villa. Still at $289 for Saturday night and $239/night for the remaining nights, it was WAY overpriced! The Luxury Villa smelled like a locker room. The furniture and carpets were worn out and the appliances, fixtures and finishes were mismatched and VERY dated. Our first reaction upon walking... more

We came here on a fantastic pre-summer deal, otherwise I would consider the room not worthy of more than $150/night. The Pavilion room was decent in size, with 2 comfortable beds, a balcony and a mini-fridge that had a lock on it! The kids spent most of the day swimming in the indoor pool which was very nice (water slightly... more

We desided to stay at Deerhurst for the weekend in May, as we heard some good reviews about the place. Even though the room was clean and had a lake view ( was requested), the bathroom area was terribly small and the drain in the shower did not work propely, so the water would stay in th tub for a... more

This was our first trip to Muskoka! We stayed at Deerhurst Resort May 16-18, the Victoria day long weekend. The drive from Brampton was 2 1/2 hours of enjoyable scenery. The weather wasn't the greatest but Deerhurst still has alot to do. We did paintball, hiking, boating and even enjoyed the spa. We stayed in a deluxe 2 bedroom suite... more

We spent Easter weekend of 2009 at the Deerhurst Resort in a one-bedroom junior suite in a Sports Villa, which is situated near the main pavillion. The Sports Villas have close proximity to the main pavillion, which is ideal if you are looking to keep active all week or weekend long. The resort has a lot to do for all... more

After reading the reviews, I wasn't expecting a whole lot on my first visit. I have stayed in the area before but could never afford to stay at Deerhurst. After getting a decent rate through Priceline, we thought we would give it try. We were given a room in the Bayshore building and while the room was spacious and somewhat... more
