The coolest place in Muskoka
A must seen if you are staying with us during the summer time
Dark Sky Preserves are incredibly unique and rare, with only 6 in Ontario, 19 in Canada, and less than 100 in the entire world. Luckily, the Torrance Barrens Preserve is only 10 min drive away from the Black Lake Cabins and 2 hours from Toronto, making it one of the only places nearby to appreciate spectacular night skies.
