Available Real-Estate in Muskoka
The District of Muskoka is often called the crown-jewel of cottage country, known for 1,600 pristine lakes, abundant forests, and a rolling landscape of rocky outcrops.

A Land Of Discovery.
Muskoka was named for Chippewa chief Mesquas Ukee, who negotiated the land claim for the territory with the British in the mid-1800s. The passage of the Free Grants and Homestead Act of 1868 opened the era of widespread settlement in Muskoka. Settlers received free land if they agreed to clear it, cultivate it and build homes. The soil was poorly suited to farming; however, establishing a steamship industry revived industry and launched tourism in the area.
In the later 1860s, various travellers began to explore the lakes, including artists who painted and sketched the untouched landscape. When the railroad reached Gravenhurst in 1875, the area grew rapidly, expanding the thriving lumber industry and drawing businesses such as leather tanning, furniture craftsman and hydro generating stations. Interesting fact: the Muskoka Lakes Navigation Company, from its founding in 1866 until its demise in 1958, operated the most prominent and finest fleet of inland lake steamships in North America.Population And Economy
