The room was spacious and relatively clean but the mirror and windows were very dirty. There’s nothing to do and the food options are bad that I had to drive to a nearby restaurant to eat there. It was sad to see the buffet only run on saturdays, I wish there was a way to have more food options for guests during off season times.

The resort is really good. The property is huge and has wonderful scenic views. There is so much to do there!The food at Maple pub restaurant is amazing. The only downside is that you have to book certain activities 24hrs in advance.

We had a wonderful time at Deerhurst !! The staff is so accommodating. Everything you need is right there. I will never rent a cottage again, hauling half the house to the cottage !! Considering the prices of motels in Huntsville this time of year , for a bit extra , you get all the amenities.

For the money you pay for your room to stay there. It's a shame that they nickel and dime you for everything else. The food is way too expensive and it really is nothing special. We actually enjoyed our meal more when we went into Huntsville to eat

Great amenities at the property however my only complaint was that they have check in at 4PM and all the guests arriving were being delayed that their rooms were still not ready. Stayed in Bayshore 1 area and they only had 2 handicap spots which was quite difficult to find a space to park with all the cars coming in and out they should have had more available.

We had fun but were very disappointed as my sister spent a lot of money getting a suite for her family based on having fireplaces so everyone could get cozy at night and watch movies. Neither fire place worked and after calling for maintenance and fixing one were told the other would be fixed next morning. No one came and no one updated, she followed up and they said actually someone was coming days later (after we were leaving). It changed the plans and also we wouldn’t have paid so much for that room as we wanted it for the fireplace and ambience. They wouldn’t comp anything and weren’t very helpful. The did offer to move rooms but by the time we followed up after no one coming or updating the kids were totally unpacked and would be such a hassle to love the whole family. Surprises the staff cared so little and didn’t comp anything as for many things in a room not to work is very odd and not as advertised.

Rude staff at the restaurant. Rooms missing basic things like body wash. We had one condo in greens also, very run down for the price. Missing basic utensil's. Check-in staff very unaccommodating, unwilling to even hear out requests and giving incorrect advice.
