The Ultimate Pure Muskoka Campfire Tunes Playlist: Your Musical Masterpiece Unveiled

We extend our deepest gratitude for your overwhelming response to our recent campfire tunes contest. Your passion for the perfect fireside melodies has left us in awe and with sore thumbs from organizing your submissions. Today, we're thrilled to present the culmination of our collective musical prowess: the Pure Muskoka Campfire Tunes playlist. This extraordinary compilation, meticulously crafted with love, showcases the diverse and refined musical tastes that make our community truly exceptional.

350 Unique Songs - Pure Muskoka Campfire Tunes

Our playlist is a testament to the power of music in creating memorable moments amidst the tranquil beauty of Muskoka. Each note, each lyric has been carefully woven together to ignite the spirit of togetherness, nostalgia, and joy that permeates our cherished campfire gatherings. Now we do need to say, that we included all of the songs - so it's not cohesive from a specific mood or genre. We did however want to include it all. One day, we may look at breaking this down into two or three playlists that are more in tune with each other, but for now enjoy this behemoth playlist and just skip the songs you don't want to listen to along the way. If you're talking to Siri or Alexa the speaking command to this playlist is "Play Playlist Pure Muskoka Campfire Tunes on Spotify".

Now, let's take a moment to celebrate the cream of the musical crop—our top five submitted songs. These anthems, beloved by our community, embody the very essence of Muskoka's soul-stirring campfire experiences. Join us in embracing these tunes that have captured our hearts and earned their rightful place in the pantheon of Pure Muskoka melodies:

  1. "Bobcaygeon" by The Tragically Hip
  2. "Wheat Kings" by The Tragically Hip
  3. "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver
  4.  "Wagon Wheel" the Darius Rucker version
  5.  "Sundown" by Gordon Lightfoot

To those who submitted these timeless tracks, you obviously share the same ear for a Muskoka Campfire tune. Each of these songs were submitted over 50 times.

We also wanted to point out that there were a lot of Neil Young and Garth Brooks submissions, but because their music isn't available on Spotify, we weren't able to include them in the playlist.

Now, let's give a standing ovation to our contest winners, who brought their A-game to the playlist battle. These campfire connoisseurs will soon be donning our exclusive Pure Muskoka Bonfire Tees, wearing their musical prowess like a badge of honour. Congratulations to Shawn DixonDebbie RossiniKaitlyn BullenScott Adair, and Danielle Gilzene! You guys nailed it! We'll be in touch soon to arrange delivery of your well-deserved prizes.
