If DIY’s your thing, the Cottage Workshop is your happy place! Watch veteran builders Wayne Lennox and Brian Halbot construct a tiki bar that doubles as a shed, proving that practical projects can still have personality.

Have a renovation question? These pros have the answers. Whether you’re planning a deck overhaul, building a bunkie, or just looking for clever storage solutions, we’ve got you covered with expert advice (and maybe a little sawdust).

And don’t miss our special Sunday activity—“Make Your Cottage Sign”—where families can roll up their sleeves and paint their very own cottage or lake sign. It’s the perfect hands-on project to bring a little extra personality to your retreat!
