About
Muskoka Bay Club sprawls across a majestic landscape of mature forests, lush valleys, and sparkling lakes but its beauty is defined by the dramatic rocky outcroppings throughout. Strolling through the 280 acres of scenic wilderness feels very much secluded, but the club is situated only minutes from the town of Gravenhurst and less than two hours from Toronto. The formidable layout features undulating fairways and ragged bunkers. The natural wetlands were carefully preserved and incorporated into the layout, creating challenging water hazards on several holes. The design also requires many difficult forced carries across the vast valleys. The course architect, Doug Carrick, designed Muskoka Bay Club so that none of the par 5s are reachable in two with the possible exception of the 14th hole.

Spectacular, scenic layout through a rock garden.
This is the best and most visually spectacular course I have played in Canada and I have played the best courses in most provinces. Fairly high priced but quality as good or better than other courses in this price range.
A true "Muskoka Experience"
Course was in great shape. Really enjoyed the layout, it was beautiful. However the staff made it quite obvious that since we booked through Golf Now we were treated like second class citizens in the pro-shop....
Excellent course but tough
The course was in excellent shape, quite a few blind tee shots so use the course guide, it will assist. My wife appreciated the very fair placing of the ladies tees. Overall a great experience, the views are second to none.
Beautiful facility.
Travel to "cottage country" a few times each summer. Have played most of the major courses. This one was a good time. My wife also had a great time. This is important to me. Lost some balls, but the views and great fairways were a treat.
Really worth the money you pay!
It is one of the best course we have been playing. Comparable to TPC courses we played in the State! Excellent view and services. It really worth the money you pay!
Excellent layout and condition.
The course is beautiful,, no wonder it's always one of top 5 in Ontario. The only complaint I have is the service at the restaurant, it was sooo slow. Overall a great experience.
Great landscape. Nice elevations.
Probably the nicest course in Muskoka. Have played it many times how ever This time the green fee didn't match course condition, service or pace of play 5hr 20min with no Marshall sited the whole round. I'm sure cart path only didn't help either. The green fee should have been less under these conditions.
Every avid golfer should experience MBay once for themselves and hopefully have a better experience.
