Muskoka, Beautiful Muskoka
Feast your eyes on endless views of towering pines and soaring granite cliffs. Marvel at abundant glistening lakes, sparkling rivers and churning waterfalls. Breathe in the magnificent countryside that offers unparalleled Canadian scenery and limitless recreational activities.
This is cottage country. This is Muskoka.
Friendly towns and villages offer carriage trade shopping, world class entertainment and events, diversified culture, charming artisans and hospitable service. Championship golf clubs pepper the countryside. Fine dining establishments delight gourmands with sumptuous meals served on lakeside decks and in historic buildings. Soothing spas restore vitality after busy days of outdoor play.
And despite the activities that can be enjoyed in Muskoka, it is the quiet that makes it even more magical. It’s a place to see a true night sky, to sit with a child on your lap to watch for shooting stars, to be awoken by the lonely call of a loon, and where the whisper of the wind through the trees caresses the mind and body.
It’s where time seems to stand still, and where you can still have time for yourself.
