Muskoka Boat & Heritage Centre is a 20,000 square foot, state-of-the-art facility celebrating life on the water in Muskoka. We feature the largest in-water collection of antique and classic boats. Guests are invited to walk through a living postcard onto the freight deck and meet the crew of our steamship while experiencing the elegance of famous resorts from yesteryear. Even sit in a hotel and experience the sounds of the Big Band Era. Step back in time and discover Muskoka's rich heritage dating back to the late 1800's. Visit the boat builder's 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.
