Enjoy an extraordinary dining experience with a superb view of Walker Lake from a screened porch or, inside, in a rare Muskoka ambience of wood beamed ceilings and stone fireplaces.

The Dining Room - Showing One Fireplace

Located near Huntsville, at the edge of Walker Lake, the Norsemen Restaurant has earned its superior reputation over more than 30 years of truly exceptional dining.

Les Gayne, owner of the Norsemen Restaurant, recalls the story of a recent guest telling of how he learned about the restaurant.   "The fellow was leaving his home in San Francisco, rushing to catch a cab to the airport when a friend calls to him from across the street, asking him where he was going.
He yells back, "Canada."
"But where?" his friend calls back.
"Ontario, north of Toronto, near Huntsville," came the answer.
"The Norsemen, go to the Norsemen Restaurant," his friends calls over.

The Bar and the Other Fireplace

Les manages both the restaurant and the secluded and peaceful cottage resort situated on Walker Lake.   He enjoys his wines and personally chooses an impressive array of premium quality examples from all over the world, to complement the superb cuisine.

"We love to show off and I want people to have such an enjoyable evening that they will want to return with their friends," says Les.

The Restaurant is open for Dinner only, Wednesday to Sunday in the Spring and Fall, and Tuesday to Sunday in the Summer from June 17 to Labour Day.
