Huntsville (2001 population: 17,338) is a town in the Muskoka Region of Ontario, Canada.
The 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 and the town's closeness to Algonquin Park, combined with its proximity to Toronto, make Huntsville and the Muskoka region a major tourist destination. Many summer camps for children such as Muskoka Woods and Olympia Sports Camp are within a few kilometers of Huntsville. Resorts such as
Deerhurst Resort, where Shania Twain was discovered in 1988-1989, and Hidden Valley Resort are located within the town's boundaries. There are also a handful of large manufacturers in Huntsville such as Panolam and Kimberly Clark.
