BRACEBRIDGE — As the seasons come and go like tourists travelling to and from Muskoka in search of coloured leaves, AI offers a few of its recommendations on distinctive, unique and “quirky” sites about where to go and what to see them.

Jack Cline shares a half dozen options he said former Gravenhurst GAP folks Peggy Ann Boudrea and her husband Gerry recently came across.

“Gerry, a former IT expert, and I got to talking about the benefits of “AI technology,” said Cline.

“He uses it when he goes on a road trip,  using ChatGT — or Claude or Copilot,” says Cline, noting most are well-known to locals who still may not have searched them out.

“I am driving in my car to Bracebridge, and I want to visit ‘unusual sites in and around the town — within a maximum of 20 miles (32 kilometres),” Boudreau said.

So here is the result, he says, according to the artificial intelligence:

“You’re in a great spot. Bracebridge has a surprising number of unusual, quirky, and scenic places. Here’s a curated list focused specifically on unusual, offbeat, or distinctive sites — not the standard tourist stops — all grounded in the search results you received.

They’re grouped by type so you can pick based on your mood while driving.

It’s a two‑hour loop that hits some of the most distinctive places.

Look them up on location for directions — or just ask AI.
