If you’re looking for an amazing family summer getaway in Muskoka, Ontario, be sure to add Rocky Crest Golf Resort to your list! If you’re thinking this resort is just for golfers, think again! Rocky Crest has so much to offer the entire family! We brought our kids and spent 3 days here, and I’m sure we could have stayed longer.
Rocky Crest Golf Resort is nestled in amongst the trees right on the big beautiful Lake Joseph in Muskoka. Driving up to the resort you will already begin to feel so relaxed.
We had a nice warm welcome at reception and they placed us in a 2 bedroom suite with a balcony overlooking the lake. There was so much space in the room. Each of the kids had their own double bed in one room and a second room with a king bed. There was a small kitchenette with enough space for what we needed.
We took a short walk down to the lake where we were so excited with all the activities to do! There is a huge inflatable obstacle course in the water. Everyone puts on a life jacket and swims out to it. The water is surprisingly deep which is perfect for all the big jumps you can take off “the avalanche” and other spots in the course. You can spend hours here climbing, jumping, racing and bouncing. It’s a lot of fun, even for the parents!
Once you’ve tired yourself out at the inflatable water park, head back to the dock where you can pick up kayaks, canoes, paddle boards and pedal boats. All of these are included in your stay. There is nothing more relaxing than having a paddle around the quiet and peaceful lake.
There are 3 restaurants on site at the resort. We had the chance to eat dinner at On the Green Bistro where we sat outside overlooking the beautiful green golf course at sunset. They had a variety of food and kids meals too! It was delicious!
The next morning we headed to Windows Restaurant for a buffet breakfast. They had everything from toast and cereal to eggs and bacon! We enjoyed this while looking out at the lake through the big glass windows!
Another great thing about Rocky Crest Resort is that not only is it on Lake Joseph but it is also on Armishaw Lake. It’s a short walk through the beautiful greenery where you will come to a basketball court, tennis court and volleyball court.
Don’t forget to stop by reception to pick up your equipment! You will also find a nice secluded dock by the lake to fish or get out on a boat. It’s a beautiful quiet spot away from the hustle and bustle of the inflatables and pool on Lake Joseph.
We loved our stay at Rocky Crest Resort and hope to visit again soon! For more information, www.rockycrest.ca
