Edit

History[]

Muskoka Lakes was formed in 1971 as part of municipal restructuring in Muskoka District. The newly formed municipality was an amalgamation of the Village of Bala, Cardwell Township, Medora and Wood Township, the Village of Port Carling, Watt Township, the Village of Windermere, and part of Monck Township.

The fire department was formed from a merger of the Bala Fire Department, the Medora & Wood Township Fire Department, the Monck Township Fire Department, Port Carling Fire Department and Windermere Fire Department.
