About the MLA

The Muskoka Lakes Association was formed in 1894. We are (proudly!) Canada's oldest cottage association.

The MLA's mission is to promote the responsible use, enjoyment and conservation of the unique Muskoka environment. Our vision is that, through the achievement of our mission, present and future generations will benefit from our efforts.
