Surrounded by clear Canadian skies, pure lake waters and abundant forests, Deerhurst is committed to environmental responsibility and stewardship, both indoors and out. Our hotel is currently rated 4 out of 5 possible “Green Keys” in the Hotel Association of Canada’s acclaimed eco-accommodation and venue rating program.
From Hummer exploring to our kitchen gardens, we’re incorporating fresh green practices into all aspects of our business. And Deerhurst will continue to invest in technologies, programs and options that minimize our impact and invite our guests to join us in preserving the planet, so that we can all do good while doing well.
ECO INNOVATIONS AT DEERHURST
Because a lot of small, consistent actions can add up to a significant impact we continue to try and do things greener, daily, like:
- All Deerhurst kitchens compost their green waste on-site, also naturally enriching our flower beds and herb gardens
- Used cooking oil is recycled into bio-diesel, some of which is used to fuel our Hummer tour
- Tees at our Deerhurst Highlands golf course are now biodegradable
