Muskoka Bay Resort

Did not stay overnight here, just went for a special dinner. The bartender, was funny and easy to talk to. He also made dynamite Black Russians for us as we were early for our reservation. Our server had wonderful suggestions and a friendly attitude. Just a lovely server.

Our food was spectacular! We had the Senbei Crusted Tuna and Shrimp Cocktail for starters. Both were divine. If you like proper spicy cocktail sauce, that’s the one! My guy had the ribeye and I had the salmon. Neither disappointed. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. Shout out to the kitchen staff!

We went on a Wednesday, which meant we were pleasantly surprised to hear a live musician…Tobin. Excellent mix and an all around good time.

Special thank you’s to Rohan, Herb, and Tanya. You all made our night all the more special! Looking forward to returning. The views are lovely anytime of year.😍

Would not stay again. First, golf was fabulous, and would play the beautiful course again. The rest was just not as expected. If the lofts were 200- 300 a night, I wouldn't complain. But they're not. They are priced as "luxury" but as of our stay, there are only two available one bedroom loft units as rentals, and ours was worn. Other than the architecture, it was not close to the picture on website. The couch was worn and stained. The living room side chair, next to fire was an uncomfortable, beat up homesense dining chair. The mismatched decor looked second hand/cheap, the way you would furnish a personal vacation house that you didn't use much, or didn't care about, because you expect furniture to get damaged. Again, I wouldn't judge that if staying at a cheaper place, but when you pay over $600 a night, you expect more- a bit of design/quality/effort. The supplied kitchen cookware was also mismatched and cheap, and the one thing we needed, a corkscrew was not there. No ledge or shelf in shower, really cheap toiletries, scratchy towels. If I knew this was an owner based airbnb situation, would have stayed elsewhere. They even charge you a seperate cleaning fee- which is interesting, because it really wasn't all that clean when we arrived, with crumbs in cabinets, and what looked like dog fur on the entry carpet. The view was also ridiculous- a new row of units right out your front windows (the bottom windows covered only with really cheap vinyl roller blinds, that didn't want to stay down). The patio is in a parking lot. If you look over the road and parking lot, you get a sliver of pond. Second floor slider broken, doesn't lock. Not only is check out 11, housekeeping was pounding at door at 930 (with only 2 loft units as rentals and our car in the numbered spot, they should have known we were still there). The property and club house is beautiful. That's where it ends. Doesn't feel like a resort at all. Also- a lot of construction. You've been warned.

I did not stay here. I only came for the day to golf. What an unbelievable course. Lots of elevation changes. A fair amount of distance between holes so a cart is mandatory. The course was in great shape, greens were fast and curvy. I would say that 16 holes are fantastic. The 4th has a massive drop in elevation. You don’t realize the drop in pictures. You have to experience it in person. I have mixed feelings on the 9th. I appreciate it but it’s very tough. I will come back someday definitely.

Clearly a failed condo project converted into a hotel. Feels more like renting a Airbnb in Toronto. The set up is just odd. Bare-bones amenities in the actual hotel, have to go up the road for everything. There is a shuttle service but it just seems like a bandaid solution since you cant do anything in the actual hotel. Like you could easily covert the presentation area into something for the guest. Clubhouse is nice but members are king, don’t expect exceptional service unless you advocate for it. Pool area is really nice but again to get any service we had to walk in. Nice resort but not 5 star

We stayed for 2 nights and had a great visit with wonderful customer service. Downfalls were walking into the hotel & feeling like you are at an ICE condo in downtown Toronto. They were clean though, with comfy beds, a patio, kitchen & soft towels. The design however away from the Muskoka area & landscape surrounding. Wish they would have built with more of a Muskoka feel. Additionally the food is OK - very small portions and quite expensive. Service was subpar however everyone seems quite young, all were very friendly. The golf course is really the highlight of our stay. Wonderful customer service, rented clubs were pristine & the course is beautiful. The pool outside was nice with many chairs, an outdoor bar & seating areas. No hot tub which we found odd. Gym was also exceptional! Would stay again but perhaps in a villa with a group to avoid the cookie cutter hotel rooms.

Dined in the Restaurant on Monday night (4 Adults /2 children) booking made by my D-in-Law ( Sarah Crabbe) . Despite a relatively quiet restaurant, the service was poor -over 1 hour for starters to arrive . We had two Grand kids with us and their food ( fish/ chips)did not arrive until main courses -the G/kids were hungry and tired. The starter dishes had not been removed from the table when the main courses eventually arrived . My chicken was overcooked as was a steak -the latter returned .When steak arrived -the veg which had arrived initially was cold. Staff were clearing some plates even though some of my guests had not finished eating. There seemed to be no person in charge and in my view staff ( having stayed in many top class venues ) are poorly trained. It is a pity as I was looking at bringing a golf party to the course which will not happen Eddie McDonnell

Our yearly golf trip was ruined by your service and treatment. After a great round of golf our party of 7, all of us staying at the resort were rejected from the restaurant, we were told sorry you can't have a beer or food here because we have a wedding . We explained to them we were guests at the resort and even still we were told sorry have a good night. I do not understand what do the resort expect from their guest to do for drinks and dinner. You market yourselves as a luxurious resort, we went there to have a 5 star golf vacation and you wouldn't even serve beers to your guests, completely unacceptable.

The room was beautiful and the gym was great.
Ted took me in the shuttle to the Club and he was really amazing and a great person, he helped me to know the area and to know where everything was located.
Mark at the front desk was also amazing, always with a smile, making everyone feel welcomed and always making sure that everything was perfect.
So, a special THANKS to them.
