The Evolving Muskoka Vacation Experience 1860-1945 by Geoffrey
The Evolving Muskoka Vacation Experience 1860-1945 by Geoffrey Shifflett A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 © Geoffrey Shifflett 2012 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation examines the development of tourism in Muskoka in the Canadian Shield region from 1860 to 1945. Three key themes are examined: the tourists, the resorts and projected image of the area. When taken together, they provide insight into the origin and evolution of the meanings attached to tourist destinations in the Canadian Shield. The Muskoka Lakes region provides the venue in which continuity and change in each of these elements of the tourism landscape are explored. This dissertation uses previously underutilized primary source materials ranging from hotel ledgers, financial reports, personal correspondence, period brochures, guidebooks, and contemporary newspaper articles to reconstruct the Muskoka tourist experience over an extended period of time. The volume of literature pertaining to American tourism history significantly outweighs similar work conducted on Canadian destinations. This dissertation, therefore, begins with an overview of key works related to the historical development of tourism in the United States followed by a survey of corresponding Canadian literature. The lack of an analytical structure in many tourist historical works is identified as a methodological gap in the literature.

LAKE MUSKOKA Grades SUBWATERSHED Land: D Water: B Wetland: — Index Map The Lake Muskoka subwatershed is 46,545 hectares in size and is located in the central portion of The District Municipality of Muskoka. It is comprised of the lakes and streams that flow directly into Lake Muskoka. The lake itself is approximately 100 km2 and flows into the Moon River at Bala. Approximately 10% of the subwatershed is developed with 6% of the land being Crown land. 6% of the subwatershed is protected through provincial parks, crown nature reserves, or local land trusts. Urban areas include both Bala and Port Carling with a significant portion of the population being shoreline residential. There are 30 lakes over 8 hectares in size in the subwatershed and the dam at Bala controls the water level of the lake as well as generates power. There is also a water control structure and a set of locks on the Indian River between Lake Rosseau and Lake Muskoka in Port Carling.
