The check in was great.Room seemed ok well equiped,patio would not lock.They sent maintenace up, he was in room when we came from pool.Could not be fixed we were fine with it.Then had shower and smelled like septic.They finally moved us to new room on floor above bit of a hassle since we had diner reso.New room could have been cleaned a little better.Night table and floor sticky,bed wrinkled,(hope it was clean).Pool is not only for adults was full of kids even though there is kids pool.Pool was cloudy lots of floaties needed cleaning,cushion all stained around deck.Walk to pool not bad there was a shuttle if needed.Golf was great,grounds are amazing.If your looking for quiet relaxation maybe avoid.Many families.Double beds in rooms,comforters too small.Food at restaurant overpriced and not fantastic.

I am very disappointed with my stay at Muskoka Bay Resort. Upon arrival, my husband and I went to the pool and set our things at 2 sun beds and started to relax. A guest came up to us and accused us of taking her beds that she saved with towels, shoes and sunscreen. We advised her that when we got there, there was nothing on the chairs and they were clear. A staff member then came to us and asked if we saw anything and we said we did not. They went on to figure it out with the manager and apparently a manager had cleaned up the whole area earlier. No staff apologized to us and the guest had the audacity to return and comment to us that it must be nice to sleep in and take peoples chairs. Very rude and we were very uncomfortable the rest of the day. Furthermore, we stayed in a 1 bedroom loft that was given to us quite dirty - crumbs on the counter, in the fridge, and the walls in the bathroom were splattered with something. When I checked out the lady didn’t even ask me how my stay was. The only good thing I have to say is that there was a nice girl working at the outdoor bar - she was lovely. The sun bed cushions are very dirty and full of mould. Very disappointing!

For a very expensive, tiny minimalist room, we didn’t get our room cleaned until we asked to get it done TWICE! There was no option for breakfast given the supposed quality of the resort. Instead the property had a restaurant that had breakfast available however the service was very slow and expensive.

While the property is beautiful and the rooms are very nice, the amount of issues we ran into in a one night stay were a little too much for a nice resort like this. The tv remote didn’t work when we got back to the room after dinner. We were ready to unwind and now had to wait over an hour for it to be resolved. The next morning in the resort restaurant we waited 30 minutes just for our cheque in a quiet restaurant to the point that we thought the wait staff forgot about it. When we finally returned to our room we discovered we’d been locked out and our keys no longer worked. We had to go back to the main desk twice to get into our room well before checkout time. While the resort is nice I don’t think I’ll stay there again because of these multiple issues.

Beautiful golf course, pool and clubhouse gym are fantastic! The one critic I would have is that the Cliffside restaurant needs more options. The restaurant provides poolside food and drink options, and in terms of choices for vegetarians there isn’t a lot. For some reason our room was skipped by house keeping so that was a little disappointing but that may be a one off mistake. Otherwise fantastic property we visit every year! If you like golf it’s a must visit.
