Muskoka is in the international spotlight once again.
The region is Number 1 on National Geographic Traveler magazine’s list of
the 10 best summer trips of 2011. It beat out popular destinations such as
Patagonia, Argentina and the Azores in Portugal.
The magazine said Muskoka offers “an unplugged pace that’s a world away
from Canada’s largest city.”
“The 2,500-square-mile natural playground includes 8,699 miles of shoreline
; 17 historic towns and villages; and countless waterfalls and lakes
bordered by the granite peaks of Algonquin Provincial Park to the east and
the 30,000 islands of Georgian Bay Islands National Park to the west,” the
story said.
Patagonia was the runner-up destination. Washington’s San Juan Islands
rounded out the top three.
National Geographic Traveler editor-in-chief Keith Bellows said Muskoka won
the top spot because the region is true to itself.
“It’s really got this sort of special depth — this resonance — that is
immutable,” he said. “We look for something that just feels like it’s
been there for a long time and stays true to what is.”
Bellows, who’s Canadian and spent summers growing up in Gravenhurst, Ont.,
said the magazine’s editors looked at each destination’s uniqueness,
authenticity, and sense of payoff for visitors when creating the list.
“Canadians are always feeling like nobody appreciates them,” he added. “
Muskoka is something to be truly, truly cherished.”
Huntsville hosted the G8 summit last summer. The RCMP is investigating
allegations the Harper government failed to be accountable and transparent
with Parliament about the administration of the $50 million G8 Legacy
Infrastructure Fund prior to last year’s summit.
David Powley, president of the Bracebridge Chamber of Commerce, said the new
publicity is welcome following the G8 funding controversy.
“That Muskoka would be lumped in with all those other world-renowned
destinations . . . helps people feel better about themselves,” Powley said.
Muskoka Tourism executive director Michael Lawley said tourism generates
about $476 million per year — 57 per cent of the district’s GDP.
He said the tourism office has received more attention than usual since the
list was released, mostly from the United States.
“We know we’re going to generate some business from this,” he said. “It
’s a terrific opportunity for us to get connected with people we ordinarily
wouldn’t.”
For family trips, National Geographic Traveler recommends Peninsula Lake’s
Pow-Wow Point Lodge, “a 91-year-old, all-inclusive resort featuring simple
summer pleasures like campfires, canoeing and volleyball.”
Lodge owner Doug Howell said he’s already seen an increase in traffic.
“We have people just driving in off the highway who are aware of (the story
) and coming to see what we’re all about.”
