Road Work Update

Today the approaches to the recently replaced Milne Road Bridge were paved after excavation. Thanks to Bracebridge for this effort.

On another note there are Wood Lake Roads that are in need of grading. We have been told that one of the graders is down for repairs and grading will be accomplished as soon as possible. Brushing and dust control will also start shortly. Patience please!!

1093 Rignalls Rd, Bracebridge, ON, P1L 1X1

Now and then a truly unique property comes on the market before being scooped up like a treasure by the lucky finder! Sunny Harbor is one of these properties with masses to offer. The original cottage was built in 1913 and in 2000 this footprint was used to build an attractive board and batten sided cottage just 40’ from the naturally landscaped shoreline.

The open plan main level is finished in post & beam with a pine cathedral ceiling and towering windows letting in natural light and framing Muskoka’s beauty. The loft acts as a third bedroom and a full unfinished basement with double door walkout is ready to be converted into additional finished living space if desired.

There is 550’ of deck from which to savor the heart stirring lake views. This 1.3 acre, private property is on the south shore of Wood Lake, has over 200’ of frontage and boasts a beautiful safe sandy beach and a newly installed dock.

Aug 30th Monarch Butterfly Workshop

The WLCA Board is pleased to announce that we will be holding another wildlife workshop this summer! Have you heard about the decline of the Monarch butterfly? Recently it was reported that the number of Monarchs wintering in Mexico fell to its lowest numbers since 1993. This iconic species is in serious trouble, but not from habitat loss in Mexico.... The Monarch feeds exclusively on Milkweed plants, and these plants  have declined by 20% across North America due to the application of herbicides on farm fields and roadsides. It is estimated that the Monarch could go extinct within the next century unless we BRING BACK THE MILKWEED!

Slalom Productions are currently developing a new series for TV5, a major French language broadcaster, that will showcase some of Ontario’s most breathtaking, most avant-garde, most cutting-edge, and coziest of cottages. This series is meant to be an escape, to inspire their viewers, and to discover some of Ontario’s cottage country’s best hidden gems. Since this series will be presented “en français”, they are looking for francophone and/or francophile cottage owners. If you are interested please contact Fabienne L'Abbé at 416-617-8680.
