Cindy Crawford and her husband are bidding farewell to another summer spent in Ontario. On Tuesday, the 58-year-old supermodel shared a carousel of photos on Instagram, including snapshots of herself and loved ones enjoying the Muskoka region.

Crawford featured various selfies of her summer getaway, as well as pictures of herself paddleboarding, posing on her speedboat and eating delicious meals. She also included more photos of 62-year-old husband Rande Gerber, along with their two kids, 25-year-old Presley Gerber and 22-year-old Kaia Gerber. The post an intimate sneak peak inside their Lake Muskoka cottage, nicknamed "Gerber Point Lodge."

"Thanks for another great summer," Crawford captioned her post, alongside a sun emoji. "Until next year."

In the comments section of the post, several people matched her energy and commented on the beauty of her summer trip. Many people also raved over a puzzle board shown in one photo, where Crawford can be seen working on a 1,000-piece Ravensburger puzzle atop a dining table.

"Muskoka will miss you!" the Discover Muskoka Instagram account commented.

"Best summer ever. Great weather, great friends. Until next year!!!" Canadian billionaire Jamie Salter, 62, wrote.

"Muskoka looks good on you!" someone chimed in.

"Need a Canadian flag mug," someone else quipped, referencing a photo where Crawford showed off an American flag mug.

It's not the first time Crawford has reflected about spending a summer in Ontario's cottage country. In summer 2022, she made a few Instagram posts of her time at their cabin, including a video of herself steering a boat and a carousel of photos of her husband at their lakeside property.

In that post, she wrote a longer caption detailing how they hadn't been able to visit due to pandemic restrictions the previous two years. Crawford also explained how the couple's visit was cloaked with "small worries," as their two kids wouldn't be able to spend as much time with them.

"Our time at the lake had always been about creating a 'family' camp kind of vibe and most of our memories were kid-centric, and we wondered if it would be the same. The truth of the matter is that it wasn’t the same and we still had a great time," Crawford shared. "We had a chance to redefine our relationship to lake living and also just enjoy each other."

While Crawford and her loved ones regularly spend time in Muskoka over the summer, they're not the only celebrities who travel to central Ontario to get away. The Canadian gem has won over the hearts of other big-name stars looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Below are some of the A-listers who have enjoyed trips to the Muskoka region in the past.


Last August, Victoria Beckham shared a carousel of photos from a family trip to Muskoka. On Aug. 7, 2023, the 50-year-old fashion designer posted a variety of candid lake-side pictures of herself and loved ones.

The post featured a picture of herself waterskiing, along with snapshots of husband David Beckham, 49, as well as kids Harper and Cruz enjoying the lake life. She also shared a photo of her and her husband posing with Canadian businessman Jamie Salter and his wife, Sheryl, on the water.

"The most perfect few days in Muskoka with beautiful friends," Victoria captioned that post. In the comments section, people expressed their love for the English couple and welcomed them to Canada.

"Come back soon! Hope you enjoyed your stay in the Muskokas!!" one person wrote, while someone else wrote, "Welcome to our playground."


Victoria Beckham also took to social media last summer to share a video featuring husband David, son Cruz and "Elvis" star Austin Butler lifting a fallen tree trunk above their heads. Butler likely spent time with the Beckhams while visiting the Muskoka region with girlfriend Kaia Gerber, Cindy Crawford's daughter.

"Did you ever think you would see Elvis and Beckham lifting a tree? Helping the community in Muskoka. I'm impressed, gentleman!" Victoria captioned her clip on Aug. 6, 2023.

In the comments, fans praised Butler and the Beckhams for embracing "the Canadian way."

"How very Canadian of them," a fan wrote, while another added, "They are being so helpful like friendly Canadians."


While Hailey and Justin Bieber don't own property in Muskoka, they've rented places on Lake Rosseau and Old Woman Island on Lake Muskoka in the past, according to Hello! magazine. The couple, who recently welcomed their first baby together, reportedly kick back in the region often.

Muskoka might be one of the couple's favourite Canadian destinations, but an area closer to Toronto appeared to steal their hearts back in 2018. That year, according to iDesignArch, Justin, 30, and Hailey, 27, purchased a $5-million waterfront estate on Puslinch Lake near Cambridge, Ont.

Last July, "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" star Simu Liu took to Instagram with a carousel of snaps from a vacation in Muskoka. In the sun-soaked photos from Goshulak Island, the 35-year-old actor spent time on the lake boating, jet-skiing and wakeboarding with his girlfriend Allison Hsu.

In his now-deleted post, the Canadian star included a caption that was nothing short of a love letter to Goshulak Island, revealing it has been his "safe haven for over a decade." Liu added he "lived a lot of life and seen many things in those years, but nothing quite compares to the majesty of the lake."


According to Forbes, actors Goldie Hawn, 78, and Kurt Russell, 73, own property on Lake Rosseau, north of Lake Muskoka. It's where the couple have spent summer vacations with Hawn's 45-year-old daughter, Kate Hudson.

In a red carpet interview with "etalk" at the 2023 Oscars, Hudson recalled her family's go-to pit-stop when driving up to their Northern retreat. "You got to go to Tim Hortons, and I usually just get coffee," she told Canadian TV host Tyrone Edwards.

Canadian comedian Martin Short is a big fan of Muskoka. The "Only Murders in the Building" star owns a cottage on Lake Rosseau, and has even honoured his summer getaways in Ontario by creating a collector's coin.

In 2013, the 74-year-old actor teamed up with artist Tony Bianco to create a $3 coin for the Royal Canadian Mint. The collector's item features Short's summer home, a sailboat and two Adirondack chairs.

"As much as I adore the excitement of cities, it’s rural Canada that has always had my heart," the Hamilton, Ont.-born star said in a press release that year. "When I'm there, I feel like I'm in heaven. More than anything, that's what Canada means to me."


In August 2022, David Beckham shared a photo on Instagram posing with Canadian billionaire Jamie Salter, "Ted" actor Mark Wahlberg and former Toronto Maple Leafs player Tie Domi, 54, and actor Mark Wahlberg, 53. In the picture, the four men flashed bright smiles for the camera and put their arms around each other.

"Great few days in Muskoka," Beckham shared in the caption, alongside a Canadian flag emoji. "With family and friends. Wow what a place. And yes, we laughed a lot and drank a little. The best."


In July 2022, "90210" star Shenae Grimes-Beech shared a set of photos from her family holiday in Muskoka on her Instagram Stories. "Found a strip of pop-up shops made out of pastel-painted shipping containers in the middle of the woods. Muskoka, you're great," she captioned the first snap.

Grimes-Beech doubled down on her love for Muskoka by sharing an additional photo of herself jet skiing, paired with the caption, "I repeat... Muskoka, you're great," alongside a Canadian flag emoji.

According to Forbes, "Forrest Gump" actor Tom Hanks has planted roots on the coastline of Lake Muskoka. The 68-year-old star owns a stunning lakeside cottage full of bay and picture windows, according to Bavarian Window Works.

In the past, Hanks has shown his love to Canadians and the country's beauty. He replied to a letter from a fan in Toronto in 2016 who made a bet to see who could get a bet from a famous actor the fastest. "Toronto, huh? D— fine town," he wrote in his response, enclosed with a photo of himself. "Growing fast, all those condo towers down on the lake."
