Weekend In Lake Rosseau

 We spend our summer at our favourite in Lake Rosseau in Muskoka, two hours north of Toronto.  Muskoka has been voted by National Geographic as one of the best summer places to visit in Canada as this area is known for its pristine lake waters for swimming, canoeing, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing, water skiing and the million dollars cottages. For those not active in sports, one can just relax by the beach reading a book or sunbathing to enjoy the sun, the views and breathe in the clean and fresh air. Besides fellow sun worshippers, we can never ignore the presence of nature and wildlife all around us from the Canadian geese, ducks, birds and even butterflies. Plus anything can fly above including those seaplanes. Muskoka has abundant, thick and lush green trees. Muskoka is my happy place, as always so relaxing and clean just to be here. Everything there is good, loving and peaceful. Luckily, we always saw the sunset and even the blood red full moon so huge for three nights.

Clevelands House Ski Show

 One of the summer traditions at Clevelands House Resort at Lake Rousseau in Muskoka, is the Monday night ski show. This is held right after the Buffet dinner that they have at The Lakehouse Restaurant in the resort. Right after dinner, guests and visitors gather on their lawn for the best view of the lake and the ski show. The two hours show features music, entertainment right from the water skiing experts and the highlight are the champion fly boarders which are just so cool to watch. I can't believe that summer is almost winding down. Let us enjoy every last moments of summer outdoors appreciating the natural treasures in Muskoka.

Pie At Muskoka

 Believe it or not, there is a wood fired pizza right here at Lake Rousseau in Muskoka. Pie, wood fired pizza joint has opened a branch at Clevelands House Resort. It was just a perfect setting to order wood fired pizza with different toppings including a dessert Nutella pizza with scoops of vanilla ice cream. Eating pizza with drinking Muskoka Brewery beer are just a perfect combination to hang out by the lake. Of course, great company makes a difference too.  Nothing beats eating pizza and drinking beer with the view of the lake during summer. It makes summer memories more fun and unforgettable!

Good food, good times and great views.

Super Cool FlyBoards

 One of the coolest show I ever saw this summer was the Monday night ski show held at Clevelands House Resort. At around 7:30 pm on Mondays, the guests gather around the dock to watch the spectacular ski show which included the amazing Flyboards. This was the first time I have watched the Flyboards from Lake Rousseau. The boys were champions from Canada and Australia. They did their cartwheels, going up in the air from the water and other spectacular stunts. The resort also offers flyboard lessons to their guests as you can see from the first two photos here. It's an amazing sport to learn if you prefer to do acrobatics  and flying on the water. As for me, I had a fun and amazing time watching them do their flyboard stunts from the lake.

Summer By The Lake

Spending summer in Muskoka is my favourite happy place. I just love being here with the fresh, clean air, clear fresh water on the lakes, delicious food plus their Muskoka Brewery beers. Being in Muskoka is just so peaceful, pure and shows the true beauty of Canada. We stayed in a cottage at the Clevelands House Resort located in Minett, Muskoka, 2 hours north of Toronto. The resort is located in the Lake Rousseau which is one of the 3 Muskoka Lakes. This area is known as the millionaires row as there are many multi-million cottages around this lake. I also love that they were able to preserve all the trees in this region despite building their mega cottages preserving too their privacy.  The resort offers many summer activities like water park on the lake, Ski shows on Monday nights after dinner, there are golf, tennis, badminton courts, beach volleyball, lawn games and many water sports like learning to ski, kayaking, canoeing and even the cool and amazing fly board right on the lake. We also experienced the lovely and peaceful Muskoka sunsets. I love this place very much and I am very lucky indeed to spend my summers here, building memories with my family. 

 

 

 

 

Kayaking and water park. 

 

Seriously, we saw these seaplanes landing here one after another. It is the lifestyle of the rich, where they arrive here by Seaplane so that they can play golf and tennis in the resort. 

 

We saw a Squirrel water skiing during the Monday night Water Ski Show. 

 

 

 

 

We also saw for the first time, these cool and amazing fly boards right on the lake.
