About the School SMSS on Beautiful McVittie Island!

The South Muskoka Sailing School is located on beautiful McVittie Island, near the mouth of the Muskoka River and east of Browning and Eileen Gowan Islands. Though most students make their way to Sailing School by boat, we also have a daily pickup location at George Street in Bracebridge.

Directions by Car (George Street Pick-up location)
To arrange for pick up of your child at the George Street landing, please speak with the head instructor to make arrangements. Directions to the George Street Landing are as follows:

  • Follow Hwy. 118 West from Bracebridge to Golden Beach Rd
  • Take Golden Beach Road to George Street
  • Follow George Street until you reach the George Street Landing

Directions by Boat
The sailing school is located on McVittie Island, to the east side of Browning and Eilean Gowan Islands. If you have trouble finding it on a chart of the lake, locate the Pride of Muskoka Marina, and trace the shoreline north until you hit the Muskoka River. McVittie Island is at the mouth of this river. From the water, you’ll notice a large sailboat and an orange marker moored in front of the school site (on the North West side of the island). Students can beach or dock small boats at the site. Students being dropped off by parents are picked up on the water by an instructor coach boat (as the waters are quite shallow at the dock).
