Cottaging

Manitoba provides a variety of opportunities to either purchase a vacation home lot located on Crown Land, or enter into a lease agreement for a vacation home lot located within a Provincial Park. When new cottage lots become available to the public, these lots are offered through the Cottage Lot Draw process.

In the event that new cottage lots are not selected through the draw process, the remaining lots become part of the First-Come, First-Served Cottage Lot Inventory. A current listing of lots available on a first come, first served basis can be found below.

Purchasing a New Lot on Crown Land

The development time frame requirement has been waived for the First-Come, First-Served cottage lots offered for sale on Crown Land. All lots selected through a cottage lot draw are still subject to the two-year development time frame period.

Obtaining a New Leased Lot within a Provincial Park

Any future cottager, who obtains an undeveloped lot through either the draw or first-come, first-served program, will be issued a lease. The lease will specify the time (24 months) in which the cottage must be completed to “Lock-Up Stage”. Lock-up stage is considered complete when doors, windows, finished exterior siding, and shingles or other roofing material has been installed.

Undeveloped lots will not be assigned, except on compassionate grounds (e.g. the death or severe disability of a lessee). More information regarding buying, selling or transferring your Lot can be found within The Cottagers Handbook for Manitoba's Provincial Parks.
