The channel will also roll out two brand new original series, including Lake Docks & Decks, in which Canadian contractors Marshall Black and Simon Hirsh take viewers through the step-by-step process of designing and building truly impressive lakeside projects and Lakefront Luxury, a series that showcases a breathtaking crop of captivating waterfront properties that will air during the channel’s popular weekend real estate block.

“Cottage Life is doubling down on original, homegrown series featuring funny, relatable hosts and Canadian landscapes, timed to celebrate the kick off of spring cottage season,” said Jamie Schouela, President, Canadian Media, Blue Ant Media. “Our free preview to millions of viewers across the country also includes a full line-up of real estate and animal-themed series our viewers love.”
