Types of Cottages and Cabins in BC, Canada
(always ask about Cottage and Cabin Accommodations.. as all Cottages and Cabins are not created equal)

First what is the difference between a Cabin and Cottage? In the early days of the pioneer a cabin was a simple one-room lodging and a cottage was a self contained home. Today there is very little difference in a cabin and cottage except size. Cottages tend to be bigger.

Based on visits with thousands of accommodations since 1995 we have found that a cabin tends to be a smaller one-room structure while a cottage is more of a multi-room self contained home. And please note there are exceptions to this rule. Sometimes a cabin is called a cottage and a cottage is called a cabin by some.

Cottages, in general, are self contained units with more than one room. Most cottages include a private entrance, one or more sleeping rooms, a full bathroom, fireplace, common living area, full kitchen and dining area. Some cottage and cabin retreats also have, onsite, a food and beverage facility, specialty shops, a meeting and conference building and/or a selection of entertainment activities.

Cabins, in general, are simple one room structures. There are cabins that are also self contained (more like a cottage than cabin) and there are cabins that are bare bones. The bare bone cabins are usually very remote and are associated with some sort of outdoor activity. For example some of the simpler one-room cabins are located at the end of long haul backpacking trips, snowmobile tours and xc skiing adventures.

The selection of cottages and cabins varies greatly. Some enjoy all the luxuries of home while other cottage and cabin accommodations do not have power, phones, TV or plumbed washrooms. It is important to check what is included when booking an accommodation.

Cottage and cabin units, like all accommodations, generally promote higher rates in the peak seasons from May to September and offer discounted deals in the off seasons. Be aware that some cottage and cabin retreats operate peak seasons in the winter months because the accommodations are part of a winter activity. So peak season would be December to March.
