Modern Prefab Boathouse Designed for the Muskoka Region

By June 28, 2023No Comments

Residential architecture firm Turkel Design has launched a modern take on boathouses with its Muskoka Cottage Boathouse.

The lake-filled Muskoka region of Ontario, Canada, has a long tradition as a summer retreat. The Muskoka Cottage Boathouse was designed as a recreational outbuilding for the modern summer cottage.

Turkel Design devised a prefab package that shelters equipment from the elements, but also includes a roof deck and an entertainment extension accessible through large sliding doors. The regionally appropriate Douglas fir wood that comprises the boathouse acquires a natural silver patina over time, allowing it to evolve with its environment.
