Muskoka---what in the world. I have never heard of such a thing.

Muskoka?? What is the origin of that?

That's a MUSKOKA chair if I ever did see one !!!

BIL and SIL went to Muskoka this summer - they enjoyed it but found it a tad ................boring!!!

I love it! We had this poll on another board (Canadian) a while back and the results were split right down the middle. Eastern Canadians called it a Muskoka chair and Western Canadians called it an Adirondack.

I call it an Adirondack.
