Muskoka Discovery Centre

Welcome to the one-of-a-kind Muskoka Discovery Centre where we preserve the traditions of the steamship, boat building and resort era while continually educating the public about these fascinating times. Step into the past to explore what it truly means to spend a summer in Muskoka. Walk through a living postcard onto to the freight deck and meet the crew of our Steamship. Experience the elegance of famous resorts from yesteryear as you sit in our hotel and listen to the sounds from the Big Band Era. Visit the boat builders workshop and view some of the finest wooden boats ever produced. Become the captain and blow the steam whistles or start up a working engine.

Then, feast your eyes on Grace & Speed, North America’s only in-water exhibit of working antique boats. Featuring boats from local builders, Grace & Speed is awe-inspiring. These are just some of the hands on displays and state of the art exhibits that await you inside the Muskoka Boat & Heritage Centre. Come and discover all that is uniquely wonderful about this stunning slice of Ontario.
