It is a great place to stay, but not enough staff. We didn’t have enough towels, no bath mat available so we had to use our towels to dry the floor. There weren’t enough staff at the pool area, pple were coming with outdoor shoes around the pool, pool towels were so small. It was an average facility. We won’t try this place anymore, it was expensive compared to the service.

The building we stayed in was dated and there was no hot water and barely an apology. Only 1 restaurant, the Compass, was open during our stay and they seemed surprised that we wanted to eat dinner.

Restful getaway
A lovely location in a peaceful lakeside setting. The room was spacious however we were disappointed that they do not offer housekeeping service each day. They only bring you what you need if you call them. For this type of resort I find that unacceptable especially considering how much some of they accommodations cost. Some advice... bring your own pillows if possible. The ones they have are too big and thick. The restaurant in the main building is great. Had a nice buffet breakfast there. Lots of activities available and the resort has many nature trails within close proximity including Algonquin Park, about 30 minutes away.

I have been here in last year. Rooms seem tired. Hard to navigate in the dark. Room smelled musty. Cupboard door did not open on one side and then fell off the rails. Bathtub plug could not hold a bath. Beds were nicely made and clean. Expensive for the value.

Our stay at Deerhurst Resort in the Bayshore Bldg
Very spacious and comfortable room with a nice view. Grounds are quite beautiful and well kept. It would have been nice to know where to find the elevator in the Bayshore bldg. I wandered around until I found someone who could help me. We are somewhat mobility impaired.

We were trying to enjoy the Fall Colours once again but they were not very good so we did other things like going to Johnson's Cranberry farm, taking in a art show in Bracebridge and picnicking in numerous parks that abound in these towns. Actually, as the photographer of the family I got some GREAT sunrises right at Deerhurst and the nice thing about fall is the sun rises at a more civilized time than earlier in the season. And, we had a beautiful outdoor breakfast around 7:00 AM at Frenchies crepes right at the Bayshore Building. Outstanding The landscape is beautiful even without the vibrant fall colours.

I recently stayed at Deerhurst Resort and, unfortunately, the experience was quite underwhelming. The resort felt outdated, with old furnishings and amenities that did not meet expectations. For example, the fridge was extremely small, and there were no microwave or kettle provided in the room, which made it inconvenient to prepare even the simplest of drinks or snacks. The safe in the room was not functioning, which was another disappointment. One of the biggest letdowns was the lack of dining options. The resort only had one restaurant, and there was no room service available. This greatly limited our meal choices, particularly given the remoteness of the location. Additionally, essential items like a toothbrush and toothpaste were not provided upfront; I had to call and request these basic amenities, which should have been readily available. Housekeeping service was also subpar. No one cleaned the room or changed the bed sheets during our stay, which made the stay feel far less comfortable. The only redeeming quality of the resort is its location, which is scenic and convenient. However, the poor service and outdated facilities overshadowed what could have been a pleasant getaway. In summary, while the location is ideal, the overall experience at Deerhurst Resort was disappointing due to its lack of modern amenities, poor service, and inadequate housekeeping. It does not provide the value one would expect from a resort of this reputation.
