Our home is a large country home on three acres with a pond in the back yard and the Muskoka River in the front. We enjoy many wonderful outdoor amenities - swimming, hiking, biking. We can swim in the river all summer, and boat to Lake Muskoka in 10 minutes. The region of Muskoka was nominated as the top worldwide summer destination in National Geographic 2011.
