Encompassing 800 acres of rolling terrain, Deerhurst Resort stands out as a one-of-a-kind vacation and conference destination in the heart of Ontario's famed Muskoka tourism region, just two hours north of Toronto. With its idyllic setting on Peninsula Lake, Deerhurst Resort is one of the province's oldest and largest resorts, dating back to 1896 when it was built by a young Englishman, Charles Waterhouse. Since then, Deerhurst Resort has welcomed guests from all over the world with elegant accommodations, gracious hospitality and an extensive array of amenities and recreational activities.
With its multi-million dollar expansion at the turn of the century, Deerhurst Resort now offers a total of 425 guest rooms and 40,000 square feet of meeting and exhibit space. Guests are welcomed in the warm splendour of a new lobby, hotel wing, water view restaurant, grand ballroom and stunning indoor pool. Other accommodations are tucked in low-rise clusters throughout the rolling landscape, offering a variety of styles including one, two and three-bedroom suites complete with kitchen, dining area and living room.
Extensive recreational activities are available right at the resort year-round. Summer beckons with horseback riding, tennis, waterskiing, boating and two excellent 18-hole golf courses, including the nationally acclaimed Deerhurst Highlands. Winter brings the joys of cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, ice-skating and dogsledding plus downhill skiing and snowboarding at neighbouring Hidden Valley Highlands Ski Club. The Deerhurst spa takes pampering and relaxation to the most self-indulgent levels and features all natural Aveda health and beauty products.
Three distinctive restaurants provide diverse dining options, from casual to fine dining while an extensive wine list has earned the resort the prestigious Wine Spectator Award of Excellence. In the evenings, live entertainment is highlighted by the acclaimed year-round musical show where Shania Twain once performed.
With world-famous Algonquin Provincial Park and other family-friendly attractions close by, Deerhurst Resort offers a luxurious setting for an active vacation or corporate retreat. Seasonal specials such as the Muskoka Harvest Festival, Maple Syrup Festival or Gardeners' Getaway are perennial favourites, while other packages feature golf, entertainment, skiing or a summer adventure kit.
