Description: Muskoka is beginning to emerge as a major golf destination, largely due to the presence of Deerhurst Resort's Highlands Golf Course. Designed by Robert Cupp and Thomas McBroom, these18 holes lead the player through some of Ontario's most picturesque and awe-inspiring natural features.
Rugged granite and dense forests surround you as you make your way through this par 72, 7,011-yard playable favorite. Set in the majestic environment that inspired the Group of Seven painters, the Deerhurst Highland's 10th hole is sure to inspire you to take your game to the next level- literally. The multi-tiered green is guarded by bunkers, and the elevated tee area is perched 30-feet above a natural rock wall.
The Deerhurst Resort provides many golf-related amenities that will enhance your visit after you've played the 18th hole. Even on a pay-to-play basis, golfers at Deerhurst still receive the perks of being a private club member. One of our most popular features is our Golf Academy, headed by director Dave Castellan, one of Canada's top 50 golf instructors. The Deerhurst Golf Academy offers private and group lessons for students of all ages, and covers topics ranging from club fitting basics to the fine-tuning of advanced skills. For children, we offer week-long "essentials" golf camps for students 7-12, as well as hour-long, basic golf clinics. Our focused instruction features hands-on guided playing time, video analysis, and CD manuals in order to help you get yourself "up to par."
Whether you're looking to organize a weekend golf getaway with your spouse, a benefit tournament for your favorite charity, or a teambuilding golf retreat with your co-workers, Deerhurst Resort is your prime destination for group golf services. Our coordinator Danny Jackson has a number of packages and services to fit your needs. Deerhurst can accommodate 12-player private outings to 144-member tournaments. Group clinics are offered frequently, and arrangements for registration, food, beverages, and team gear are also available.
Finally, if a long day on the links has left you hungry, make sure you stop by our Highlands Lounge. Featuring casual, homestyle food, Deerhurst's conveniently located restaurant satisfies famished golfers with burgers, sandwiches, wraps, hand-poured drafts, and fine single-malts. With amenities like these, the Highlands at Deerhurt Resort is bound to become your preferred golfing destination.
