The venue is now open and will run for the duration of the summer until September 27, 2020.

The patio boasts two different themed sections, and you can choose where to visit depending on your vacay preferences. 

The cottage area has comfy Muskoka chairs and wooden seats that will whisk you away to the lake. 

Jet off to a tropical island by visiting the beach area, which features vibrant chairs and a giant palm tree.

Even the cocktails are created to reflect the theme of each patio. 

The Zip Caesar, Muskoka Mule, and Honey Do will all give you major cottage vibes.

Add a bit of the tropics to your day by sipping a Maui Sunset, 18.8 Vodka Fresh Spritz, or Mango Kick at the beach area.
