Embracing Peninsula Lake, Deerhurst Resort is your year-round retreat for a Muskoka vacation, conference, wedding or golf getaway in Ontario’s famous “cottage country.” Just two hours and two turns north of Toronto, Deerhurst is minutes from the vibrant town of Huntsville and world-renowned Algonquin Provincial Park. 

In 2019, Deerhurst opened the magnificent Lakeside Lodge, Muskoka’s newest waterfront experience, on the site of the resort’s original lodge built in 1896 by Charles Waterhouse, whose family owned and operated Deerhurst for three generations. Throughout its (almost) 125 year history, a milestone which will be marked in 2021, Deerhurst Resort has welcomed generations of guests, hosted world leaders at the 2010 G8 Summit and played a role in the early career of one of Canada’s most successful recording artists, Shania Twain.  

MINDS MEET IN MUSKOKA
Deerhurst's extensive venue options encompass 40,000 sq. ft. of flexible space including the newly redesigned Pavilion west wing (2019) and the 11,000 sq. ft. Legacy Hall, the largest hotel venue north of Toronto. With 400 guest rooms, locally inspired cuisine, on-site teambuilding by our own Adventures in Excellence department and in-house audio-visual services provided by PSAV, our meeting professionals put everything you need right at your fingertips, and on budget. 

What will really engage and energize your attendees is Deerhurst's 760 acre year-round playground, made for beach BBQs, golf tournaments, wilderness adventures, and energizing winter activities, all in a setting that inspires creativity and fresh thinking. 

We'll see you in Muskoka!
