About

Muskrat Lake is located in the Whitewater Region of Renfrew County, in Ontario, Canada. It is approximately 16 km (9.9 mi) in length, an average of 17.9 m (59 ft) deep but 64 m (210 ft) at its deepest point, and covers an area of 1,219 ha (3,010 acres). It is rumored to be home to a legendary lake monster that locals fondly refer to as “Mussie”. The lake currently has over 300 lakefront properties and two privately owned campgrounds surrounding its shores. The town of Cobden is the largest settlement on the lake, with a population slightly over 1,000 people.
