Muskoka is located only 90 minutes from Toronto and is close enough to be accessible, but far enough away to be a magical place where the worries drift away. Muskoka is not only for the visitors and seasonal residents, it's a viable community to live and work in as well. Muskoka Lakes is a thriving township that is constantly seeking out new initiatives and preserving lost areas.

The Township of Muskoka Lakes has the largest land area of the six municipalities in the District of Muskoka. It's amazing to realize that the permanent population of 6,500 increases to 37,000 in the summer. As more and more people seek to visit or move to Muskoka, the area's planners and the planning committee of the TMLRA are constantly seeking a balance between development and preservation.

Muskoka has always enticed people to come and make their home here; but in doing so we must also remember to preserve the beauty the area has to offer. Muskoka is home to over 1,600 lakes, the world famous Algonquin Park, stunningly beautiful Georgian Bay National Park, countless species of animals and the most spectacular scenery you could wish for. All year long there are great attractions, activities, events and areas you can be involved in.
