Kevin W Review of Deerhurst Resort

Recently came home from a guys golf trip. We stayed in the "Greens" chalet. First impression of the room, huge. 3 bedroom 4 beds with a small kitchen area and a deck. The chalet sits just off 9 holes of golf which are currently disc golf due to covid19 spacing issues. The resturaunts were DELICIOUS!! except, the food truck. I personally did not purchase anything or visit but 6 guys returned from the room saying they just got "ripped off bad" by a good truck. insanely high prices with the smaller portions ever
. I previously saw these comments on Google reviews with the same concern about food truck before arriving but forgot to mention it ( sorry guys)
Maple & Eclipse are a must try. Severs were super friendly and accommodating and the food was spot on every day (lunch and dinner for 8 guys). Coffee in the first shop was a nice touch too.
The lakeside golf course condition was good. Just good. Its covid19 2020 and expectations aren't tempered. There was one issue when we arrived. There were no recorded tee times previously booked by our group months ago due to a computer glitch; when indeed it was booked ( confirmed later). It was at first very concerning at first for 8 anxious golfers to hear we had no times booked and no room to play. Now, The reason I gave the resort 5 stars and not 4 was because of how the golf course handled the entire situation. After realizing the huge error Deerhurst lakeside staff got on the phone , got the appropriate people Involved , and coordinated all the times around our group to get us out over 3 days. We were compensated appropriately and received many apologies and could see the genuine concern on the staffs faces for our experience at Deerhurst. I really appreciate how much effort was put in.
The only negative thing I could say about the entire experience is the amount of walking involved and the condition of some of the walk ways. We walked from dinner to our chalet and none of the paths were lit up and the brick walk ways are like triangles, watch your ankles.
I have back issues and having to either drive 2-3mins and find parking and not be able to have drinks or walk 20mins up a steep hill to dinner. We approach the staff to ask if we could use a golf cart to and from our chalet to retrieve clubs and it was declined. This is not a major issue but i really think deerhurst should consider fixing all path and walkways and also having electric cart rental to allow people to travel to and from their rooms.
overall experience was amazing and I'm going back soon with my kids!!
well done deerhurst
