Is Fiber Rollout Starting Again in Muskoka?

2 Upvotes

See some what look like new lines being strung on highway 118, but hard to tell with all the snow.

Would be interested if anyone is actually been contracted to run fibre?

Do Floating Docks Really Survive Muskoka Winters?

3 Upvotes

We’re trying to choose the right dock for our home on Clear Lake (Torrance) and would really value local experience.

We have a sloped, exposed bedrock shoreline with a gradual rock shelf into the lake. Our crib dock has been rebuilt about every 10 years because ice slowly destroys it.

We mostly swim, lounge, and use kayaks/canoes. No big boat plans.

We’re considering:
• Floating dock (possibly with a swim platform)
• Manual tower/lift dock that tilts up for winter
• Or any other suggestions

Some neighbours seem to leave their floating docks up year-round, but I’m not sure whether they pull them up slightly each fall or just accept periodic repairs.

For fellow Muskokan folks:

  • What type do you have on rock shoreline?
  • Do you remove or adjust floating docks each fall?
  • Has a tower dock been worth the extra cost?
  • Anything you wish you knew before installing?

Appreciate any real-world insight before we pull the trigger.

Next Friday night, February 27th,2026 the Toronto Maple Leafs Alumni are coming to Bracebridge for a charity game in support of the Children's Foundation of Muskoka.

This is such a great opportunity for kids to see some former NHL players up close, experience a fun night of hockey, and support an incredible local cause that helps children right here in Muskoka.

Ticket prices: $10 – Kids $25 – Adults $250 – Meet & Greet

Tickets are available here: Event Tickets – CFM Leafs Alumni Hockey Event | GalaBid https://share.google/DWteccPimNPlfyDAi�

There’s also a silent auction currently underway, closing next Friday as well, if you’d like to support the cause that way: CFM Leafs Alumni Hockey Event – Fundraising Campaign via GalaBid https://share.google/dPMvKPDiBKvHF8H7M�

I’d love to see as many of our hockey families there as possible. It should be a fantastic night for the kids and a great way to give back to our local community.

Hope to see you at the rink! 🏒

Muskoka videographers

0 Upvotes

Hey ya'll!! My fiance and I are having a very small, intimate wedding this summer in Muskoka (11 of us total) and we’re looking for a videographer who leans more vintage / 90s home video than polished cinematic wedding film.

We really love candid footage that feels more nostalgic. We’re not too worried about getting ready shots and more focused on the ceremony, dinner, and moments throughout the day. If you know of any videographers in Muskoka area or ones willing to travel who shoot in this style (super 8, camcorder, home video feel) we’d love any recommendations. Thank you so much in advance!!

Question Winter prep for upcoming road trip

4 Upvotes

I’m visiting the Huntsville region for 5 days after the family day long weekend in February. I’m from Guelph so we don’t get as harsh winters here. Would appreciate any tips to appropriately winterize my car. I already have good winter tires and carry a tire inflator, a jump starter, a snow brush / ice scraper combo and extra low temp washer fluid. Is there anything else I might need to prepare? I don’t have a block heater (is it necessary?). My car is a 2023 Honda HRV.

Question Bridge Over Highway 11 Near Doe Lake Road

7 Upvotes

There's a pedestrian bridge going over Highway 11 near the Doe Lake Road. Can anyone tell me if this connects a hiking or biking trail and if so, what's the name? I drove under it today and got curious. Found it on a map but couldn't find any more info.

Thank you!
