Muskoka Jitney gives you more time for work, or just some down time


  If you need a break from driving in weekend traffic to and from the cottage the Muskoka Jitney has the answer. A commuter service providing non-stop transportation from downtown Toronto to Muskoka each Friday, and returning each Sunday evening, Muskoka Jitney gives you more time for work, or just some down time. Now in their 3rd season, they offer three good reasons to use their services – they’re economical, environmentally friendly and sociable. They do the driving and you leave your car at home.

  Services are available each weekend up to and including the Bala Cranberry Festival weekend, (always the weekend after Thanksgiving). Pick-ups in Toronto happen each Friday in the mid-afternoon at three locations. The Jitney then runs to the Gravenhurst Train station and two other lakeside stops in Muskoka. On Sunday evening (Monday evenings on the long weekends) it runs in reverse, allowing for some whistle stops, if required. Connections to the various area airports can also be arranged.

  Jitney passengers enjoy luxury, air-conditioned commuter vans, shuttle buses or highway coaches, with snacks and cold refreshments sold on board. Oversized luggage can be taken at a surcharge. Quantity discounts and season passes are also available. The scheduled traveling time is 2.5 hours, but can vary depending on the weather and traffic, of course.

  The Muskoka Jitney is affiliated with Turnkey Concierge services, which has been offering concierge and property management services to individuals, households and enterprises for 15 years. Based in Toronto, Turn Key Concierge Services offers these services within the GTA to permanent residents as well as to inbound executives, dignitaries and group travelers, in Ontario and across Canada, with winter service for snowbirds in Naples, Florida. Turn Key Concierge Services personnel are bonded and insured by the Dominion of Canada General Insurance Company.

  For more information, or to make a booking with the Muskoka Jitney, call 1-866-925-9901 toll free, or 1-416-925-9900 in Toronto.
