Deerhurst offers accommodations for 1,000 people in 400 rooms and suites, many of which are privately owned or blocked by timeshares.
Rates for suites overlooking Peninsula Lake can exceed $650 a night in peak summer season.
In the early days, Deerhurst's lodge was accessible only by steamboat and the property encompassed only four acres of waterfront.
For six years (2006-2012) Deerhurst hosted the Canadian Pond Hockey Championships on specialty-built rinks on Peninsula Lake.
Extensive wilderness on Deerhurst's property and surrounding the resort make it a popular base for adventure sports.
