One of our favourite events of the year is the annual Midnight Madness event as hosted by the Huntsville BIA. However, due to COVID-19, all public events have understandably been cancelled.
After some thoughtful planning with the Muskoka Bear Wear team however, we realized that we didn’t want to wait a whole year without connecting… so we’ve decided to host a VIRTUAL MIDNIGHT MADNESS instead!
What does that mean? We’re serving up all kinds of incredible deals on all of your favourite cottage comfy, cool, cozy Muskoka Bear Wear threads for a very special online event. We’ve prepared a special Virtual Midnight Madness page on our website that will go LIVE at 6:00 PM (ET) on Friday, July 17th and will close at midnight.
We’re confident that there will be a little something for everyone as we offer up pieces from our Ladies, Men’s and Kids comfy collections.
Set your alarm clocks, get your smartphones or laptops ready and we hope you’re able to get in on the fun of Midnight Madness this year… even if it is only online! We’ll see you soon at www.muskokabearwear.com!
For many Ontarians the recent announcement that we are allowed to have social circles and begin to reconnect with family and loved ones is a welcome step in the journey towards a new normal. Having close contact with people outside your household, but within your social circle, is vital in supporting mental health and reducing feelings of social isolation. In many cases, this involves families being able to see each other for the first time in months and often includes hanging out at home, eating together and sleepovers!
That is where Muskoka Bear Wear is there to help! We want to make sure you and your family are keeping it comfy, keeping it cozy and keeping it cool for your social circle sleepovers!
No sleepover is complete without these Ontario Made, comfy, Plaid Cottage Comfy Pants! They are a stretchy, relaxed, basic fit with an embroidered Camp Classic logo on the left side, pockets & a draw-cord waistband for easy fit adjustment.
Kids want to be comfy too, can you blame them? Available from XXS – XL and in a wide variety of colours, the Youth Cottage Comfy Pants are essential for cozy sleepovers with the family. Versatile, relaxed, stretchy, ready for playtime, chill-time, or cuddles!
Whether it’s time in the backyard together, huddled around the dining room table for a meal or kicking it in the living room to a great series on Netflix or Disney+ with the fam jam, the MBW T-Shirt is the perfect way to keep it comfy in your social circle!
We hope you are able to reunite with loved ones, re-establish social circles and we hope that we can be there every paw print of the way to keep you comfy! Enjoy those sleepovers!!

In response to the challenging times that we’re all experiencing together regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, we wanted to spread love and levity across the community.
We brainstormed various ways we could do this and one of the things we landed on was highlighting some of the incredible local businesses who are stepping up and modifying their services to continue to serve the community through these tough times. These are local businesses who have local champions who are doing what they can to be leaders through this unprecedented historic time.
“A little boutique curating the prettiest things for the prettiest babes.”
Conveniently located in downtown Bracebridge at 48 Manitoba Street, Belle’s Boutique specializes in fashion forward retail exclusively for women. Owned and operated by Krystal Darling, Belle’s is a small boutique full of carefully curated collections.
While facing the unique challenges presented from quarantine-life, Belle’s doubled down on their digital presence and remained a beacon of positivity to the community. It has been wonderful to follow along with Krystal and her family; 2-year old Beau who is absolutely adorable, and a soon-to-arrive second baby boy who we are all anxiously awaiting!! Through blogging and posting to various social media channels, Belle’s has continued to grow their brand and online community at a time when people are craving connection.
We want to applaud Belle’s for all of their hard work and risk taking through these tough times. Giving the community something to be hopeful about and feel good about is awesome!
Belle’s is currently offering shopping-by-appointment, but has an online store that is open 24/7. For the remainder of this week and weekend, Belle’s will be closed for the arrival of baby boy #2… but they are having an online sale to make up for it, so be sure to check that out!

Located in downtown Bracebridge, the Muskoka Natural Food Market has been a staple in the town for over 30 years. It began as a labor of love for a young woman who had an intense passion for holistic health and wellness. Her vision was to create a space where those looking for natural health products could not only come to shop, they could stay and enjoy a variety of delicious ready-to-eat whole food meals that cater to virtually all dietary restrictions. The health food store became quite a hit, so much so that a few eager local entrepreneurs took notice and expressed serious interest in keeping the health food store alive, once the current owner decided to embark on an incredibly deserved journey into retirement.
The young entrepreneurs worked tirelessly to find a new home for the old store for they had a huge vision and the refashioned Muskoka Natural Food Market was born. The new store is home to a massive living green wall that welcomes you into the space like a fresh hug from the great outdoors. Round the corner and the incredible smells of fresh baked goods and hearty home cooked meals will lead you straight to the Deli Lama and Buddha’s Bakery. The gift section is filled with beautiful creations from local artisans and the grocery section provides healthy options that cater to all dietary needs. The vitamin and supplement collection has been carefully selected and is made up of the highest quality products on the market.
Through the global pandemic, the Muskoka Natural Food Market has stepped up and constantly evolved their business to continue serving our amazing community. From modifying their hours, limiting numbers through their space, offering a sanitization station and more, they have worked hard to prioritize safety while still providing their patrons with all of their favourite and much-needed products.
The Ontario SPCA and Humane Society is a registered charity, established in 1873. The Society and its network of animal welfare communities facilitate and provide for province-wide leadership on matters relating to the prevention of cruelty to animals and the promotion of animal well-being. Offering a variety of mission-based programs including community-based sheltering, animal wellness services, provincial animal transfers, shelter health & wellness, high-volume spay/neuter services, animal rescue, animal advocacy, Indigenous partnership programs and humane education, the Ontario SPCA is Ontario’s animal welfare charity.
We are proud to say that we have had a long relationship with the local OSPCA Muskoka Animal Centre here in Bracebridge. For many years, we have been donating $5 from every Doggie Bandana sold directly to their initiatives. With the help of our passionate supporters, we managed to donate over $13,000 in 2019.
Although the centre has been temporarily closed due to COVID-19, the animals in their care continue to receive excellent love and support. Providing additional exercise and activities to keep them engaged and comfortable is keeping both their staff and the animals busy.
We want to acknowledge and celebrate the incredible hard work that the OSPCA Muskoka Animal Centre and their team have been doing. We believe their work is vital to our community and we are grateful for all they do.
