Township of Muskoka Lakes Seeks Feedback on New Park Design Concepts

Muskoka Lakes, ON – The Township of Muskoka Lakes is inviting residents and stakeholders to provide feedback on newly released design concepts for Hanna Park and Milford Bay Community Centre Park through Engage Muskoka Lakes by Monday, September 29, 2025.

As identified in the Parks and Trails Standards Manual, Development Plans are being prepared for Community and Destination scaled parks to support long-term capital planning and address aging infrastructure. These parks typically feature a combination of active and passive recreational uses, such as sports fields, playgrounds, water play areas, trails, amenity/support buildings and parking facilities. Additional parks have been identified for Development Plans, with engagement scheduled for 2026.

The design concepts for Hanna Park and Milford Bay Community Centre Park reflect ideas gathered during the initial ideation phase of public engagement, occurred June 2025. This second stage of feedback will help shape the final park designs and ensure the plans align with community priorities.
