This township contains Muskoka's three big lakes: Lake Muskoka, Lake Rosseau and Lake Joseph. In the late 1800's Joseph Rousseau was part of a trading family and was associated with William Robinson a trader who worked out of Newmarket, he had trading posts near Bracebridge and another on Yoho Island. Mr. Robinson became Hon. William Robinson, member of the House of Assembly and sat for the riding of Simcoe, later becoming Commissioner for Indian Affairs. Mr. Robinson named the three lakes. He named Lake Joseph and Lake Rosseau after his friend Joseph Rousseau. He named Lake Muskoka after the Indians who camped at Indian River every year. The great Indian chieftain Muesqua Ukee's name was used to create the name Muskoka. Lake Joseph contains the district's deepest water recorded at approximately 93.8 metres. The population in 1991 was 5,430 permanent residents and 24,053 seasonal.
Muskoka是著名的蜜月圣地,Muskoka湖又被称为蜜月湖的枫叶区。经Hwy 400北上,在巴里(Barrie)转Hwy 11再续向北,就到达Muskoka地区。在Gravenhurst、Bracebridge、Huntsville这一带起码有八条路线可供选择,行车距离从63至337公里不等。其中最吸引游客前往的是分别位于Huntsville的狮子台(Lion's Lookout)、Dorset的了望塔(Lookout Tower)及ParrySound的山火了望台(fire tower),届时登高一望,满山红叶尽收眼底。同时,在格雷文赫斯特镇(Gravenhurst)也可以参观白求恩故居(Dr. Bethune House)。 从Gravenhurst登上皇家邮船Segwun号或其姊妹船Wenonah 11号在湖中畅游。
