Cottage Insurance

What Is Cottage Insurance and Why Do I Need It?

Cottage insurance provides protection for your seasonal or year-round vacation home. Because cottages are often located in remote areas and not occupied full-time, they present unique risks that require tailored coverage.

Coverage usually includes:

  • Property damage (from fire, weather, vandalism)

  • Contents coverage (furniture, appliances, recreational items)

  • Seasonal liability (injuries on your property)

  • Optional coverage for boats, docks, and ATVs

Some insurers require that your primary residence is already insured before issuing a cottage policy.

How Much Does Cottage Insurance Cost?

Premiums are influenced by:

Whether the cottage is seasonal or year-round

Location (remote vs. accessible), and proximity to fire services

Property features: wood stove, waterfront, outbuildings

Security, maintenance, and occupancy

We’ll help find the right coverage based on how you use your cottage and what it’s worth.
