We asked our online community to tell us what words comes to mind when thinking of Muskoka. We had such a great response, and more than enough words to work with in creating this Muskoka chair T-shirt graphic!

A perfect place to hike during the day and stargaze at night, the Torrance Barrens Conservation Reserve was designated the world’s first permanent Dark Sky Preserve back in 1999.

The Muskoka River tumbles down a steep, narrow chute just South of Bracebridge. This waterfall has created a large gorge over thousands of years, and although it’s somewhat hidden under Highway 11, it is a beautiful sight to behold!

This shoreline view is a hub of activity at the “hub of the lakes”. A popular spot for locals, cottagers and tourists to come dine and shop and see what Port Carling has to offer. A favourite, for sure.

Perhaps you have memories of your grandfather's "old woody" and the sentimental value it holds for you evoking a sense of tranquility and beauty that is unique to Muskoka. Or maybe you're simply a fan of the quality and durability of these timeless vessels. Whatever your reasons for loving these boats, we understand that it's more than just an object; it's a feeling.

Everyone who knows the the Moon River, loves “The Chutes”!  A wonderful place to go cruising, fishing, camping, or have a picnic, this spot is a favourite for generations of locals, visitors and “river rats”.

The famous leap from the boathouse in Muskoka! A bucket list feeling - for sure!

We feel that the dock cleat is rather symbolic of life on the lake. Many of us will remember the first time we were entrusted with the task of tying up the boat. How we eagerly jumped out onto the dock to pull the boat in close, while next being taught how to properly figure-eight the rope around the dock cleat. Ahhhhh….memories!

Sitting at the edge of the dock, watching the light and colours ripple on the surface of the water as the sun goes down - What a magical end to the day.

These days, a serene state of mind can be a difficult thing to achieve. Just know that Muskoka is here for you, and peace is only ever a paddle away.

We love those calm, quiet mornings, when there’s nobody out on the lake except us and the loons. When the sun hasn’t fully risen and there’s a light mist coming off of the water…..and it’s so calm that the surface is like glass, and the reflection along the shoreline is a perfect symmetry.  Total serenity.

Pure beauty.
Pure relaxation.
Pure Nature.
Pure outdoors.
Pure fun.
Pure inspiration.
Pure memories.

We all have our own reasons for being here, but our love of this place unites us.

Everyone loves this familiar stretch of Highway 118 at Milford Bay. The beautiful, pink granite is some of the oldest rock on the planet, and the rock cut itself is about a kilometre long. This makes highway 118 one of the most scenic routes in and around Muskoka.

Do you ever feel like you are being watched? Barred owls are one of our favourite woodland wildlife sights. They seem to be much easier to hear than see, so we always consider ourselves lucky when we cross paths with one.

Steamships shaped the history of Muskoka. Carrying mail, traded goods, travellers and tourists, these vessels became the backbone which connected everything and everyone in the region for over a hundred years. That is why this grand old lady of the lakes, Wenonah II, holds such a special place in our hearts.

Is there anything as grand as an “old woody”? Wooden boats like this give us a glimpse into Muskoka’s rich past and hold sentimental value for many people. They are really something special. 

The Esso sign at Mortimer’s Marina is a lake landmark for anyone who’s “in the know” on Lake Muskoka. Places like this help us navigate the lakes and are a big part of cottage culture, here in our beloved Muskoka!

Clear skies, calm waters, the sounds of crickets and loons….there’s nothing else quite like it.

Highway signs become landmarks on the way to our homes, cottages or destinations in Muskoka. We all have our favourite ones that are telling us, “You are almost there!” And with that, we can feel ourselves start to relax a little and begin to feel more at ease.
