Lake Huron has many islands, over 30,000 of them! As result, it also has the most shoreline of any lake . . . almost 4,000 miles! Manitoulin Island, in Canada, is the biggest island in the world, surrounded by freshwater. And if you like confusing word play, Manitoulin Island is the largest freshwater island in the world, which has the largest freshwater lake on an island in the world. That island the largest island, in a lake, on an island, in a lake, in the world!

Orillia is not far from Collingwood/Wasaga Beach/Midland and many of the waterfront towns along the east coast of Lake Huron and into Georgian Bay...all the way to the tip of the Bruce Peninsula/Tobermory and right around the shoreline of Georgian Bay are some beautiful beaches.Many inlets/islands and small towns such as Parry Sound (home of Bobby Orr),Killarney Park, Penetanguishene, are part of cottage country. http://encarta.msn.com/map_701510733/Georgian_Bay.html
