It’s such an amazing thing to experience travel through the eyes of a child, everything is magical, everything is new and they are always so excited!

Our family visited Deerhurst Resort in 2019 over the March Break and it was such a wonderful experience, that we were so excited to visit again! The Resort really caters to families and made us feel so at home.

 

Where we Stayed

We stayed in the Lakeside Lodge, which is Deerhursts’ newest accommodation right on the water. We stayed in one of the two-bedroom suites, which was the perfect size for our family. Our suite had a gorgeous view of the landscape and overlooked the water. The suite had a full-sized kitchen, dining space and living room as well as two bedrooms and two bathrooms. There was plenty of space for our family to unwind, relax and enjoy some downtime together.

 

Where we Ate

There are three on-site restaurants at the resort; The Maple Pub & Patio, Eclipse Restaurant & Terrace, and Compass Grill & Lunge. We had our first dinner after checking in at the Maple Pub, this was the perfect spot for a casual dinner and was open all week for lunch as well. We at breakfast each morning and one of our dinners at Eclipse, this restaurant has spectacular views of the grounds and surrounding areas. Eclipse offers both a buffet and a la carte options for breakfast and a full dinner menu with plenty of options for both kids and adults. Our favourite dining experience was at Compass Grill & Lounge, we ate dinner there one of the nights and had a variety of delicious share platters and the highlight of the evening was the live music, our kids loved this!

The Activities

 

One of the great things about visiting Deerhurst over the March Break is that there is always something to do, no matter what kind of weather you are having. The resort really does cater to families (especially this week) and sets up so many different indoor and outdoor activities. These are just a few of the things we did during our stay.

 

Indoor Activities:

 

Our first day at the resort was freezing outside, so we decided to plan a few indoor activities. We went to the pool, the Treehouse, the Arcade and the Fun Zone all in one day! The kids loved the pool and the Fun Zone the most. The Treehouse is a climbing indoor playground suited for toddlers to age ten (so perfect for our kids at this age). The Fun Zone is something that the resort sets up during the week of March Break another indoor play-space with games, a corn maze, building blocks and endless fun!

 

 

Outdoor Activities :

 

The resort offers so many different seasonal outdoor activities. All of our kids have started skating now, so we did the skating rink as a family, which was beautiful (the rink overlooks the whole resort). We also did some of the walking trails and the Maple Sugar Shack. Muskoka such a beautiful place to enjoy the outdoors!

We absolutely loved visiting Deerhurst again for the March Break and would bring our family here again for sure!
