>Black Fly/Cluster Fly Season in all of Muskoka🪰:
-Mid May- End of June
-There is no way for us to predict when these flies will come and for how long, it depends on the weather and how fast the spring run off dries up.
-We recommend wearing a long sleeved shirt, pants 👖 and a hat 🤠 to avoid black fly bites. We do leave bug spray, after bite and bug jackets for your use inside the cottage, we also spray the property for mosquitoes and flies regularly. Please dress and prepare accordingly as these sprays tend not to work with black flies (this applies to the entire Muskoka Region)
