  Great magazine, high subscription cost March 6, 2008
This magazine if great for Cabin/Cottage living and life on the water. My husband and I get lots of useful information out of this magazine and save back issues for years. However,we cannot understand why the subscription rate is so high. If the subscription rate were 1/2 as much we'd probably subsribe for many years, but have a hard time with the approximately $7 per issue (U.S. customers). It seems like a highway robbery. Granted it's by far the best cabin/cottage magazine out there, as opposed to Coastal Living or others that seem geared to the Million dollar vacation homes, whereas this one seems to touch all home styles and true seasonal cottages/cabins, etc. We wish there was something so good on the U.S. side of the border.
 Real-life camp and cottage material December 26, 2002

We LOVE this magazine, it is practical, humorous, full of useful info, and scaled to normal living, not decorator hype. Published in Canada, it seems to have a tone of simplicity and common sense. It is geared to the camp or cottage owner and great for off-season reading, when you want to stay psyched about the camp until you can get back there. One great article walked us through the entire "opening up" procedure, in exhaustive but hilarious detail. We own a very small in-process camp on a lake in northern New England.
