As we were only planning to stay for one night and concentrate our activities in Algonquin Park we selected a lower price room $150/night . The room in one of the Sport Villas was far below standard for other facilities at a similar or lower price . The room contained a bed with old comforter , two bedside tables and... More

What a disappointment. Thought we were treating ourselves by getting a basic room for a one night stay. But basic really did mean "basic". At such a resort, with such a pricey "basic" I was expecting something nicer than what I got. Very small room. Nothing but TV, bed and bathroom. It was in an outbuilding, which I knew upon... More

We visited Deerhurst Resort the weekend of April 21st. We lucked out and the weather was just amazing, almost like summer. Maybe the weather got everyone in a good mood, 'cause after reading the reviews I was afraid to speak with the people at reception, but they were all very, very nice and helpful. The place is just gorgeous. We... More

A friend and I took our children to Deerhurst during the March Break. We were very disappointed with the service we received. A few times during the stay staff used excuses such as "we weren't expecting so many people or we didn't think the weather would be like this"....we booked Deerhurst because we knew we couldn't count on the weather...

I stayed at Deerhurst over Christmas with my 7 year old daughter. We stayed at the actual Pavillion which is much nicer than the Sports Villa's. The room was clean and nice and there was a lot to do. Dance classes for my daughter, tree trimming and other festivities. The pool is clean and well maintained. My only issue was... More

My initial impression was the whole place, aside from the main building/lobby, looks like it could use a bit of a makeover. We had a Sports Villa room, which while decent, wasn't worth the acclaim. It is nowhere close to 4 star, but maybe closer to 3 star. The halls of the Sports Villa building had peeling paint, dirty looking... More

Deerhurst professes to be one of the best resorts in Canada. If that were true I would avoid any resort in Canada. If you travel frequently and stay in 4-5 star hotels/resorts - you will be very disappointed...I would consider it a 2-2.5 star hotel - in need of a major overhaul.

Went with fairly high expectations after staying at various high quality resorts around the country and abroad, I would say Deer hurst is very over rated, over priced, poorly managed. The only bright light in the stay was the wait staff, they tried to go above and beyond to please patrons. Front desk staff courtious but not empowered to make... More
