– MUSKOKA, HUNTSVILLE AND SURROUNDING REGIONS – RELAX IN ONTARIO'S OUTDOOR PLAYGROUND

DID YOU KNOW...

MUSKOKA

THE AREA OF MUSKOKA was originally occupied by Native Canadians, mainly consisting of the Algonquin and Huron tribes in the 1600s. Largely unsettled until the late 1760s the European presence in the region was largely limited to seasonal fur trapping and remained that way until the mid 1800s. The name Muskoka is thought to be derived from the name of a Chippewa tribe chief named Mesqua Ukee, which means “not easily turned back on the day of battle.” Mesqua Ukee fought during the War of 1812, in the defense of York, now Toronto, in 1813. www.visitmuskoka.com/history.htm & en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Muskoka
