Huntsville is a town in Muskoka. It is located 215 kilometres (134 mi) north of Toronto and 130 kilometres (81 mi) south of North Bay. Of the three big Muskoka towns, it is the largest by population (21,147 per 2021 census) and land area (710.64 km2).
Huntsville is located in the hilly terrain of the Canadian Shield and is dotted with many lakes. Due to its natural environment and natural resources, Huntsville is a tourist destination that draws many people from around the world.[5] The Toronto Star ranked the town the #1 place to take a summer trip in 2011.[5]
Huntsville serves as the western gateway to Algonquin Provincial Park via Ontario Highway 60, and was the host to the 36th G8 summit in June 2010, at Deerhurst Resort.
History
The first European who settled in the area in 1869 was George Hunt, who built a small agricultural centre. In 1870, a post office was built and the area was named Huntsville after Hunt, who became the first postmaster. Huntsville's economic development was stimulated by the engineering of a navigable water route north from Port Sydney to Huntsville which opened in 1877. A railway route from Gravenhurst was built by the Northern and Pacific Junction Railway in 1885, which encouraged development and resulted in Huntsville becoming officially incorporated in 1886.[6]
In the following year, the Muskoka Colonization Road reached this area. The central Ontario community became an important industrial area in the late 19th century and had several saw, planing, and shingle mills, as well as a tannery. Today, the many lakes and hills in the area, combined with the town's proximity to both Algonquin Park and Toronto, make Huntsville and the Muskoka region a major tourist destination.
On 8 October 2009, Huntsville lost one of its valued landmarks, the Empire Hotel. The first building erected at the site of the Empire Hotel was Jacob's Hotel, built around 1875 by James W. Jacobs. He later renamed it Dominion Hotel. Jacobs died in 1890, leaving behind his wife and eldest daughter, who both were named Emma. It is unknown which of the women married a McLaughlin man, but the McLaughlin family renovated the building after the horrible Main Street fire of 1894. A 26 July 1906 issue of the Huntsville Forester reported the sale of the hotel to Robert T. McNairney and D. Kehoe, who demolished it so as to expand it three stories. By 1922 the Dominion was owned by Bruce Simmons. Organized in 1933, the town's rotary club began to meet at the hotel and would for many years. In 1945, the hotel was bought Louis Mascioli of Timmins. From 1947 to 1948, the Mascioli brothers renovated and expanded the facility, removing the porches, adding street level retail units, and erecting the adjoining four-story red brick building. They also renamed it the Empire hotel. The first shops were a barbershop, a jewelry store, and a shoe store. Beilhartz shoes remained in business in the Empire Block until 1985.
In the mid-80's, Jim Tumber, who acquired the building along with Gary Macklaim, obtained a grant from the Government of Ontario to help convert the now derelict building from a hotel into an apartment building. Dave Keay, the building's last owner, bought the Empire in 1999. Over the next 10 years he refurbished the basement bar and the 52 apartments, doing most of the work personally. The day the fire happened was the day that Keay had just finished the outside painting. The fire was believed to be caused by an electrical problem but the exact determination is still unclear. As of March 2023, the lot is empty.
In June 2010, Deerhurst Resort in Huntsville was host to the 36th G8 summit.
Huntsville Town Hall
Built in 1926, the Classical Revival administration building was designed by Toronto-based Ellis and Belfry (James Ellis and Franklin Belfry[7])[8] and was last renovated in 2006 with an added annex (Algonquin Theatre). Council is exploring options to deal with the aging structure.[9] The clock faces were salvaged on 17 August 1927 from the demolition of the 1873 Union Station in Toronto.[10] The building's land was once used as an early burial ground and Methodist manse for what was the Huntsville Methodist Church next door (c. 1897 and became Huntsville Trinity United Church in 1926). During the construction of the town hall in the 1920s, skeletal remains were unearthed, which showed that not everything had been moved to the new Locks Cemetery site.[11] The building involved two decades of planning.
Council and administration
The town's council is made up of nine members. The members include the mayor, three town and district councillors who represent the town at the municipality of Muskoka council, and ward councillors who represent the wards of Huntsville (Ward 1), Chaffey (Ward 2), Stephenson-Stisted-Port Sydney (Wards 3,4,5), and Brunel (Ward 6). A regular council meeting is held once a month in the Council Chambers in the Huntsville Civic Centre. From December 2019 until November 2022, the mayor of Huntsville was Karin Terziano. She previously served as the acting mayor between 12 November 2019 and 17 December 2019. On 17 December 2019, Terziano was appointed to fill the vacancy of the mayor's office due to Scott Aitchison's resignation to become a federal MP for Parry Sound-Muskoka.
On 11 February 2019, Bob Stone was appointed to fill the vacant Ward One seat vacated when Mayor Terziano was appointed mayor.
On 24 February 2019, the council appointed Councillor Nancy Alcock to serve as Deputy Mayor. Alcock had previously served as the alternate deputy mayor. Councillor Jason FitzGerald was appointed alternate deputy mayor. [12][13]

Deputy Mayor Alcock won the election. Hernen, Withey, and Bullion placed second, third, and fourth, respectively.

Geography
There are three large lakes within the township boundary: Mary Lake, Lake Vernon, and Fairy Lake, as well as countless smaller lakes. Peninsula Lake, Skeleton Lake, and Lake of Bays lie directly outside the town. The Muskoka River winds its way through the city's downtown, while the Big East River empties into Lake Vernon. The Arrowhead Provincial Park is also located within city limits.
The Canadian Shield causes many scenic hills and sweeping landscapes throughout the region. The city centre is made up of hills and steep roadways. While there are some flat, low-lying areas, much of the city lies on uneven terrain.
Climate
Huntsville experiences a humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb), with warm, humid summers, and cold winters. The town has four distinct seasons. Particularly during the colder weather season, there is considerable variance in day-to-day temperatures. Huntsville is located in the snowbelt region of Central Ontario, near the Great Lakes, causing snowy winters and lake-effect snow. The town has comfortable summer temperatures and occasional heatwaves accompanied by high humidity and active thunderstorm weather. Huntsville and the Muskoka region have the highest annual precipitation of any region in Ontario.[16]
