The Cottage Life Bunkie

If you visited the 2007 Spring Cottage Life Show, you probably saw Wayne Lennox building the Cottage Life Bunkie - a handsome and compact guest cabin with a handy sleeping loft. For all the cottagers who want to build their own, Wayne has put the finishing touches on the plans and they are now available!

The 17-page package includes a complete materials and cutting list, three options for the main floor layout, and tips for keeping your costs down.

The Ontario Building Code (OBC) requires a building permit for any structure with floor space greater than 10 square metres (108 sq. ft.). This bunkie was designed with that stricture in mind: At 8' by 13'6", it is exactly 108 sq. ft. and therefore, in most jurisdictions, does not need that particular documentation.

These plans are brand new and developed exclusively for cottagelife.com. Complete plans will be e-mailed to you as a full-colour PDF (allow 2 days for delivery, 17 pages; 2.0 MB).
