THE ROCKSTARS IN CUSTOM GOLF TOURS

WHY PLAY?

SUMMARY

Deerhurst Golf Couse is located in the heart of Muskoka’s beautiful rustic Highlands.  The course was designed by renowned Golf Architects Thomas McBroom and Bob Cupp and opened for Play in 1990.  The development of the Deerhurst course and its excellent new resort was integral in the future development of Muskoka into one of Canada’s top and most exclusive Golf Destinations.

The Highlands Golf Course sits on a beautiful parcel of land which flows naturally through a rugged yet lush landscape scattered with granite outcroppings, deep valleys, and heavy forests.  There’s lots of drama and fun to be had all over the course with water, deep bunkers, and wild fescue always seemingly in play.  The 10th Holes is a 464 Yard Par 4 from an elevated Tee.  You’ll need to contend with water on the left, a 30 feet rock wall on the right with trees above and rock formations, deep Bunkers, a forced carry and did I mention it’s a dog-leg right.  Get ready for the thrilling ride that is Deerhurst.

Your experience starts with a BANG.  The first hole is one of the most stunning and photographed opening holes in Canadian golf.  Right is dead, left is dead and running through the fairway is dead. You might want to keep the driver in your bag and put the ball in the middle of the fairway with an iron.

Its wonderful vistas and elevated tee decks make for an excellent golf experience.  …both difficult and easy holes make for a great challenge. The fairways are very generous for miss-hits but trouble always lurks in some very deep bunkers. Great food after golf at Antlers steak house make the day even better.

The risk/reward par five 14th, a 523 yarder that’s reachable in two for those willing to clear a large lake fronting the green. Meanwhile, the 15th is an excellent 411-yard par four with a creek that meanders the entire length of the hole, forcing the player to clear it twice before reaching the putting surface. Lots of options on this hole make it one to remember.

So get ready for a variety of tee decks and the wonderful scenery. Watch out for old Tom Mcbroom’s little bumps that will either bounce your shot closer to the target or into the fescue! Miss by a little is good. Miss by a lot and it might end in tears. If you enjoy a challenge with numerous elevation changes and granite and danger never far away, it’s time for Deerhurst.
