An extraordinary waterfront commercial opportunity on the serene shores of Moon River, nestled in the heart of Muskoka. Encompassing over 5.3 acres across two deeded parcels and zoned WC1 (Waterfront Commercial), this remarkable property unlocks a world of possibilities - from a boutique luxury resort or premium short-term rental operation, to a high-end residential enclave or a generational family compound. Positioned along a quiet stretch of Moon River just five minutes from Bala and within 15 minutes of Port Carling and Port Sandfield, this is a location that offers true Muskoka seclusion without sacrificing convenience. The main parcel stretches over 3 acres of gently sloping, open terrain with western exposure, treating residents and guests to spectacular sunset views over the water. A sandy beach provides direct access for swimming, fishing, and paddling, while mature trees and open lawns create a naturally private and inviting setting. At the heart of the property sits a handsome two-storey cottage of approximately 2,500 sq. ft., featuring three bedrooms each with its own ensuite - perfectly suited for hosting or anchoring a larger retreat. Seven additional year-round cottages surround the main residence, each thoughtfully appointed with one to two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a private bathroom, offering immediate income potential or guest accommodations. A second deeded parcel of 2.2 acres sits just behind the main site, providing valuable room for future expansion or complementary development. Whether you choose to operate the property in its current resort configuration or reimagine it entirely, the foundation is already in place. With its commercial waterfront zoning, substantial acreage, sandy beach, and an unbeatable position in cottage country, 1168 Moon River Road is a truly singular opportunity that rarely presents itself in Muskoka.

Muskoka — synonymous with cottage country – is a household name in North America. Situated around three large lakes (Muskoka, Joseph, and Rosseau), the Muskoka region was once dubbed the ‘Hamptons of the North’ by The New Yorker, because of the number of celebrity estates in the area. Beautiful homes and well-appointed summer cottages offer breathtaking views of the lakes and constellations of private islands. The number of local residents more than doubles in the summer when 100,000 seasonal residents join the 60,000 lucky permanent residents of the Muskoka region. But the privacy afforded by sprawling tree-covered properties and the vastness of the granite-carved area means that Muskoka can easily accommodate visitors while maintaining everyone’s privacy and sense of open space. The Muskoka region is known for its exceptional dining, trendy shops, the craft beer scene, and contemporary art galleries and museums. Kids can choose from a variety of exciting summer camp programs and families can join in the year-round cultural festivals. When you’re not relaxing dockside, you can paddle. Whether you’re a serious kayaker or it’s your first time trying to figure out how to sit in a canoe, you’ll revel in hours of scenic adventure. Or just take your paddle board out on a lake, early in the morning, and attempt some inspiring yoga poses. From the haunting call of the loon to the variety of trees and vegetation local to the region, Muskoka is a nature lover’s paradise. But if hiking is not your favourite way to appreciate the grandeur, there are boat cruises that will offer you a new perspective.
