Ok but not amazing

Similar things were recommended that were found in other tourist guides and lots of driving between sites. Really liked the suggested hike!

The most wonderful adventure

In-laws came to visit Toronto and we decided to book a guess where adventure. We made it an overnight. Stayed out of wonder bed-and-breakfast called blue spruce. It was located in Gravenhurst lovely place highly recommend if you will do an overnight. The Muskoka meandering was perfect. We ended up going from a Wednesday to a Thursday and caught some farmers markets and lovely place in Bala on the docks, called Jack and Stella had some great drinks and just enjoyed the adventure overall. Did not know what to expect, but we certainly fell in love with a Muskoka after this trip it was short and sweet, and would do it again in a heartbeat. It was four of us, and all of us enjoyed every minute of it.
