November is here, and we think it’s such an underrated month. Sure, it’s a transition, and the weather can be unpredictable, but there are just so many unique things about being in Muskoka at this time of year. Some of these make us feel happy, some make us sad…and some pull on our heart strings in a nostalgic kind of way. Regardless and decidedly, we love Muskoka in every season.
- It’s quiet
- It’s dark
- Leaves are floor décor
- Cranberries on everything
- Layers are a must (and mostly plaid)
- Snow has already fallen
- It’s still 20 °C some days
- Hunting season is on
- Ice is already in the rinks
- It’s time to get the boat out of the water
- Half the local shops are closed for the season
- No more grocery store line-ups
- No more restaurant line-ups
- Christmas lights not yet welcome
- Poppies are a must
- You are the only one on the lakes
- You are the only one on the trails
- You might still be swimming
- You might also be crazy
- Everyone says, “It came fast”, anytime someone says it’s November
