Muskoka is another popular destination for the Toronto student pilots' cross-countries. This airport sports a huge runway, good for big jets and air force machinery. You need to talk to Timmins RCO (was London, but now they only provide FISE there) to operate in their control zone. RCO guys are positive and helpful, working with lots of student pilots.
You can frequently meet some expensive and cool aircraft at Muskoka - Corvalis, Cirrus, corporate jets and so on. Terminal building is very nice, facilities comfortable. I think it's a good place to visit now and then. Check out the airport website for more details: http://www.muskokaairport.com/
I was driving by Muskoka airport one day last week when I observed an aircraft , a variant of a Boeing 757, with the colours and loggo of the United States Government, Air Force 2 I beleive. Very impressive. Probably something to do with the upcoming G8 summit.

Landed on it on my first leg of solo cross country. Quite an experience.
A very nice terminal with a museum.
The Biggest Runway Ever! :-)
