Canadian cottage life

The air is getting chillier and the sunsets are getting earlier. Be prepared for the cozy months ahead with extra blankets and comfy cushions so you can snuggle up in your favourite corner with some tea and a good book.

Make the most out of the last days of the season by enjoying time with family and friends. Gather around the table for some good conversation and a home-cooked meal. These are the moments that make cabin life extra special. 

Go outside to fill a basket with everything nature has to offer. Turn fruits and berries into tasty jams and marmalades or store dried herbs and mushrooms in jars for autumn stews. The result? A delicious bounty of homemade goods to enjoy, serve and share with loved ones.

When you have a small cabin, it is important to use every inch of space - even under the bed! Try underbed storage that fits perfectly under your bedframe to store warmer blankets and bed linens that can easily be pulled out when the air starts to feel a bit crisp. 

Whether it is building a puzzle or simply relaxing on the couch, make the most of the moments together where you can truly enjoy time as a family. Having extra space with a large dining room table or sofa will leave room for old relationships to re-ignite and new connections to flourish.

Cleaning might not be the most fun part of the weekend but it is a necessary part to keep things organized and enjoyable for the next time you visit. Keep it simple by having large laundry bags that are easy to fill and load up into the car. Store some fresh towels and cleaning products in clear containers where you can see exactly where everything is and if it needs to be restocked. No need to overthink it!
