Cottage Life is a Canadian magazine focusing on cottage lifestyle content. First published in the summer of 1988, the publication features how-to articles, buying guides, and tips on aspects of cottage living and lifestyle.

Formally published by Quarto Communications, the magazine is currently owned by Cottage Life Media Inc., a subsidiary of Blue Ant Media . ^[1]

Spin-offs [ edit ]

The first extension of the Cottage Life brand was the Spring Cottage Life Show , which was first held in 1994 and has been held every spring since. In 2004, The Fall Cottage Life Show was launched to cater to the growing popularity of year-round cottaging.

In July 2011, Blue Ant Media purchased a 15% interest in Quarto Communications. ^[2] Quarto was granted a license for a Category B service known as Cottage Life Television in November 2011, which would be focused on programming dealing with cottage communities and lifestyles. ^[3] Four months after announcing its intent to acquire Bold, a re-brand of the former CBC Country Canada channel (which was a joint venture with Corus Entertainment ), Blue Ant would later purchase the remaining shares in Quarto Communication and rename the company Cottage Life Media. ^[4] Bold would subsequently relaunch as Cottage Life on September 4, 2013. ^{[5] [6]}
