Reviews of Husky the Muskie (Tourist Attraction)

Brian Graham

What's not to like about a huge fish next to a nice vantage point? I like how the parking lot is across the road requiring a bit of a walk. Very historic location at Hospital Bridge.

Dan Remmerswaal

Unique piece of work. Love when the fountain is on.

Tammy Frakking

Free parking, Nice park (pretty flowers) Beautiful by the water Nice big fish!!

David

Bigger than I expected. The graffiti kind of ruins the look up close . Would recommend coming when it's not -27°

Charles Lenhart

Need more information on the significance

Kamrul Chowdhury

Nice place to visit

Booyaka Stubbs (ExplorewithStubbs.com)

Not too much to see here but it is a good spot to get out and stretch the body out. Could make some good sunset pictures here as the background is incredible. Small parking area and small park too.

Ricky Bennett

Husky is my homeboy, we go way back. Good times. He was a true party animal in his youth. But he'll never admit it.

Archie Ives

it would seem to be the equivalent of the giant nickle or the big goose. The geyser helps make this even better..nice attraction.

Matthew Cornelisse

It's a big fish in a nice little park. Kids thought it pretty cool.

Patrick Abdelnour

Nice park by the lake, good place to take photos. Flowers and rocks are very beautiful. It's a family place. There is a bride and groom taking their photo session while we are visiting the park.

Steve Hammond

It’s a very large musky. What’s not to love.

john fotheringham

It's a giant Musky so it has to get five stars!

Linda Graham

Beautifully landscaped mixture of gardens and grass area and Husky the Muskie was awesome to see and a beautiful vantage point of Kenora!????????❤️

Karl S

Iconic statue overlooking Lake of the Woods (city of Kenora). It is on the shoreline of Safety Bay, within McLeod Park. The park is beautiful, there are great views of the Bay, skyline of the city and the Goodwill Geyser, another iconic sight. Every hour on the hr., the geyser erupts some 209ft/75m. Free parking and easy access from the Trans-Canada Hwy.

DoS

The flowerbeds near Husky were excellently grown and maintained. You can tell someone put a great amount of effort into them. Very beautiful spot.

Henry Wesley

amazing

John Dharm

Never had a picture with a fish statue .. Now I do. Thanks Kenora!

Tracy Love

Fun road side photo OP!

Travis Eacona

Cool place to take in a huge statue of a Muskie. Great view of Kenora and surrounding safety bay. Good seeing area and shade in the summer days. There is a little bridge/ walkway that will allow you to get a nice view further out on the water.

Hoon Kim

Ontario is pretty fat, and Northern Ontario is boring. Husky the Muskie is a hidden interest.

Sebastian Kluth

Husky the Muskie is a gigantic statue of a fish that has become Kenora's landmark. There is a beautiful park with plenty of flowers and banks situated around the statue. You can relax on a lookout platform that offers a great view of Lake of the Woods and a beautiful water fountain. You can find a parking spot at McLeod Park on the other side of the road. A trail safely leads to the statue in about five minutes.

Adrian Neill

It's a big statue of a fish. You can park there. Long walking path along the river. Why?

B Z

Good place to walk around.

Steve H

A Kenora tradition, if you haven't stopped to see Husky the Muskie you really should.
