Hoped to spend some quality time with family for NYE, but was quite disappointed. The resort and the club kept contradicting each other about the events happening. Went back and forth few times between the resort and the club for few events but got turned back saying they are fully booked and it’s a private event when the resort front desk said it’s free public events. Not the best to go when it’s not snowing as well since all the “inclusive” amenities were not available due to no snow on the ground. Kinda turned into going to an apartment with a golf course in the back instead of being in a resort. NY celebration was at 10 pm which was something u have to pay extra 150 per person for and overbooked Definitely not worth about $1000 for 2 nights, really hoped for something more than a place to just sleep.

This was the second time we stayed at Muskoka bay resort. We liked the fact that the 2 bedroom suite we stayed in was more like an apartment then a hotel room and had a full kitchen, washer and dryer, dishwasher , very spacious, very clean and was cozy and relaxing. We will definitely stay there again and we have recommended Muskoka bay resort to our friends and family.

Great stay except for check out
So much of my stay was great: the bed was comfortable (and I'm picky), my unit had its own thermostat, there was a full kitchen with a dishwasher in a drawer, full-size fridge with freezer, microwave, stove, oven, Nespresso machine, kettle. Extra Nespresso pods were available from the front desk. There's also in-suite laundry, but I didn't use it. A couple of minor details: 1) there's a cupboard over the kitchen sink so my hubby had to be careful not to bop his head when hand washing dishes. 2) the shower / bathtub has fully tiled walls and no grab bars, so be careful as the bathtub can be slippery. 3) there's not a lot of soft surfaces in the living/dining area of the suite so it can be a bit echo-y. 4) there's a strong smell in the hallway - I think from carpet glue. I would have given a 5 star review, but I took a star off for my experience on the day of checkout. Check out is by 11 am, but housekeeping started knocking on the door at 10 am. Then maintenance came to wash the balcony glass - they thought we had already checked out. By 1030 am, our key cards were deactivated - good thing I stayed in our suite with our luggage while hubby went to get the luggage cart. By the way, they only have one luggage cart which was in use by someone else. All of this left a bad taste in my mouth, in what was otherwise a fantastic stay.

Not worth it.
It was definitely not worth $438/night for studio. I should’ve booked airbnb with the same price. The bed was not Queen, it was double! Low water pressure on shower. The washroom fan was not working. Sound proof was week, we could hear everything from hall away, and upstair.. The place was clean though.. The heating system was also not perfectly working. Smelled burning. I don’t think it was worth more than $200/night. Not a good value.

The Muskoka Resort Hotel is a pretty new build on an existing development. The room was pretty expensive (about $400) and the room was new and clean. I did thing there were some issues. 1. The coffee station in the room (which had a kitchenette) had no creamer options. When I called down to front desk they were unable to provide any. This was mildly annoying. 2. The HVAC system seemed loud. Much louder than other hotels I have stayed in. 3. The main hallways must have just been carpetted. There was a very stong smell (glue I think) associated with that. I feel it was just a bit overpriced but this was a long weekend and a last minute booking.
