Important Things are Happening in Muskoka There are two important community initiatives going on right now. See below for more details: Muskoka Second Home Study - Given the significance of the second home population and their contribution to Muskoka’s culture, economy and social structure, the District of Muskoka periodically conducts an anonymous survey to capture important information about this population sector. This survey informs Muskoka District Council on how second home households are used, how they may be used in the future, your individual needs and how you participate in the local economy. Building Muskoka's Next Hospitals - Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare continues its capital planning journey to build two new hospitals in Huntsville and Bracebridge. Community engagement is an essential part of the planning process. Please join them in person at one of their open houses, or virtually from your home.
