Muskoka, synonymous with cottage country, is a household name in North America. Situated around three large lakes (Muskoka, Joseph, and Rosseau), the Muskoka region was once dubbed the ‘Malibu of the North’ by The New Yorker, because of the number of celebrity estates in the area. Beautiful homes and seasonal cottages offer breathtaking views of the lakes and constellation of private islands.

The number of local residents more than doubles in the summer when 100,000 seasonal residents join the 60,000 lucky permanent residents of the Muskoka region. But sprawling tree-covered properties and the vastness of the granite-carved area means that Muskoka can easily accommodate visitors while maintaining everyone’s privacy and sense of open space. The Muskoka region is known for its exceptional dining, trendy shops, craft beer scene, and contemporary art galleries and museums. Kids can choose from a variety of exciting summer camp programs and families can join in the year-round cultural festivals.

From the haunting call of the loon to the variety of trees and vegetation local to the region, Muskoka is a nature lover’s paradise. Whether you’re a serious kayaker or it’s your first time trying to figure out how to sit in a canoe, you can revel in hours of scenic adventure. From hiking to boat cruises, there are many ways to appreciate the grandeur of Muskoka.
