The location is great but the standard room was very small and with no shears on the windows you have to keep the curtains closed or have everyone walking by looking into your room. Also wish there were chairs on the porch to add a seating area.

There’s a need for a bathroom by the beach and pool, especially if your room is at the boathouse. Very unacceptable. The resort should also have an option for breakfast!

Lovely property with amazing views! My only 2 suggestions is to have coffee available for customers in lobby since it doesn’t make sense to use a full coffee maker for one coffee. Or replace with single type coffee maker. Also have the towels available at the pool VS the front desk. Other than that LOVED the resort!

Good location in Muskoka, but very hilly to walk from the beach area to the infinity pool and again to the dock areas. Pools are very small. Water activities don’t start until things are unlocked after 8am. Sad because the water is so calm earlier in the morning. Food selection is okay, but did make me violently ill after dinner. Nothing is open until noon for food and if you want a muffin and coffee for breakfast you better be there when they put them out at 8am. They do not have enough for everyone. Best to bring your own chairs too if you are in the standard rooms. You won’t have room for it inside but there is a small deck facing the parking lot, but nice enough to sit and have breakfast or drinks.

Disappointing experience.

We arrived and checked in with a very friendly receptionist. We were surprised that there was no information booklet or map of resort supplied at check-in or in our room. The fridge had an ice maker. The tray had defrosted and frozen again in a huge lump and there were a few cubes on top. it must have been there a long time as the cubes smelt and tasted awful so we had to go get ice at the reception building. The door handles of the fridge were dirty and a few other things made it obvious that the room had not been cleaned properly. We cleaned some things ourselves. After a wonderful meal at the resort,we realized that there was no power to lights, outlets or the tv in the bedroom and the window mechanism was broken and could not be opened. We reported both of these things the next morning. The electricity was fixed but we were told that the window could not be fixed. We were offered another room, which we were pleased about, but the bedroom in the new room was inferior to the one we already had. There was a cupboard for hanging things but no dresser, shelves or even a luggage rack for our clothes and other items. We decided to keep our less inferior room that we could not open the window in. Compensation was suggested but the manager said that contacting Hotels.com for this was like trying to get through to NASA but he would try. We are still waiting to hear from him. We hope to hear from Touchstone or Hotels.com about our experience and compensation.

Property was bright and furnished comfortably. Desk clerks provided no map of property and no instructions. Coffee maker in room didn’t work and I never received a callback from my voicemail. I did see the front desk person and a new pot was delivered. Grounds were weedy, no mention of coffee in the lobby. Several beach chairs were torn. Sliding door screens were torn. On check out no one said how was your stay can we book you another stay. I inquired about a larger suite for another stay and no offer was made to show me one. There is no bartender so waitstaff mix drinks. Pool at the beach has trust coming through the sides from rebar and the floor is humped up. Signs say you must shower before use but no shower exists.

Great property, clean, near an ok maintained beach. Personally, i wouldn’t come back here again; WAY too expensive. We stayed 4 nights, for what I would have done in the Caribbean -with all inclusive. Touchstone don’t even have breakfast included. It’s even more expensive than an all inclusive when you add 3 meals for a family. Touchtone should really consider their price point and offer -at the least- one meal included.

My email request for a lake side villa not met. I don't believe the email was even read by the reservation desk as it was not attachecd to my reservation file. The beach side pool was not open on the hottest days this summer which led to over crowding at the lake side pool. Not enough umbrellas in pool area.
