Golf Getaways at Marmora Retreat
Explore Ontario’s Top Courses
Imagine wrapping up 18 holes at a top local course, then soaking in a wood-fired hot tub just ten minutes away. That’s life at Marmora Retreat, your home base for exploring some of Ontario’s best public golf in the Kawartha region.
Just two hours from Toronto, our 24-acre property offers something more personal than a typical golf resort. Instead of playing the same on-site course every day, you can explore a mix of nearby clubs, then return each evening to comfort and quiet. Whether you’re planning a golf trip with friends (our farmhouse sleeps up to 25), a corporate retreat, or a couples’ weekend, our farmhouse and glamping domes make the perfect golf getaway base.
Your Golf Course Home Base
Most golf resorts keep you tied to a single course. At Marmora Retreat, you get the freedom to play a different layout each day while coming home to the same cozy, familiar place. Every nearby course has its own feel, from relaxed 12-hole designs to full championship challenges.
After your round, unwind on private lakefront property made for recovery. The cedar hot tub fits your foursome perfectly, the sauna’s waiting, and a visit with the alpacas can fix almost any bad round.
For group golf trips, our farmhouse sleeps up to 24 guests under one roof, complete with a massive dining table made for story-swapping. Corporate retreats get custom weekday packages that mix tee times with genuine team-building; alpaca walks, kayaking, and tech-free bonding time. We’re pet-friendly too, so dogs are welcome. And for anyone not hitting the fairways, our trails and lake activities are worth the trip on their own.
