Peninsula Lake in the District Municipality of Muskoka, is one of the (North) Muskoka Lakes.

Peninsula Lake is a mid-sized cold-water lake located just east of Huntsville, Ontario. Municipal jurisdiction is split between the Town of Huntsville and the Township of Lake of Bays. The Lake encompasses a surface area of 868.8 ha (8.6 km²) and a total shoreline of 27.4 km.

The shoreline of Peninsula Lake is generally characterized as being typical of most developed cottage country lakes. The land immediately surrounding Peninsula Lake has predominantly residential uses. However, there are 7 commercial resorts, one commercial ski hill and one residential condominium. There is currently no industrial development, although the area has been heavily logged over the past two centuries.
