Cottage life brings with it a multitude of benefits — an
escape from big cities, reconnecting with nature, and quality time
with friends and family, to name a few.
But cottage life also carries some risks, and it is important
for a cottage owner to understand and mitigate against those risks,
to ensure that a cottage always remains what it is supposed to be
— your happy place.
INJURIES OR DAMAGES
As a cottage owner, you can be held responsible for any injuries
or damages that occur on your property. This responsibility extends
to both invited guests and sometimes even trespassers, depending on
the circumstances.
Similar to other types of property owners, cottage owners have a
duty to ensure that their premises are reasonably safe for
visitors.
