Cottage country
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cottage country is a common name in Canada for areas that are popular locations for recreational properties such as cottages and summer homes. The name is often applied locally; that is, any major population centre may have its own popular "cottage country" area. For example, Toronto, Ontario residents might say "I am heading up to cottage country this weekend," which is understood to be referring to Muskoka, Ontario or areas like Grey County.
