Snow calligraphy in space.
Have you ever wondered what Ontario cottage country is like in the winter? Is gliding on skis across a frozen landscape or waterway something you have always wanted to try? Have you often wondered what it would be like to snowshoe through a silent forest after a fresh snowfall?
Come on up to Muskoka in the winter and find out.
You can actually head right out across Gull Lake from here at Tuktawayin B&B, or we can take you on a guided tour to places only the locals know about. After all, one of the many bonuses of staying at a bed and breakfast is that you get to hang out with someone who lives there and knows the nooks and crannies of the community.
If you are interested in winter in Muskoka then Tuktawayin is the place for you to stay? Why? Because we enjoy winter. One of your hosts is an avid snowshoer and backcountry skier.
Snowshoe heaven on a blanket of freshly fallen snow.
If you want to head out to local groomed trails we can point you in the right direction. If you want to discover the local forests we can take you there…and bring you back home.
