Because you are not there every single month out of the year, it is important that you make your vacation cottage a special place that you can retreat to whenever the mood strikes. After all, it is the decor and design of this vacation cottage that will keep you happy and stress free whenever you feel the need to escape for a while to enjoy yourself either alone or with your friends or family. Finding the right pieces of Adirondack furniture to relax on as well as wonderful accents to soothe your senses will be key to your successful vacation cottage.
For obvious reasons, you will want to have a nice seating area within your cottage so that you can relax with your guests and enjoy great conversation or even sit alone on a beautiful night to curl up with an interesting book. The best way to create the perfect nook is to have a nice table, perhaps a coffee table or an end table, surrounded with a couple of chairs or even a cluster of a chair and bench set up. Whatever you choose to use for accent on top of that will basically depend on your tastes and budget.
Chairs and other Adirondack furniture are the perfect choice for any cottage. These pieces simply invite relation with their high backs, sloping seats and oversized armrests. You can place a few chairs around a fire pit or even a pair by the lake is great for enjoying the wildlife and natural beauty of your cottage's surroundings. If you spend a lot of time on the beach in front of your cottage you might want some portable furniture to relax on down there. Folding Adirondack chairs or a matching table and chair set are perfect for enjoying the sun and sand.
And don't think your Adirondack furniture has to stay in its natural wood hue. Some chairs are available in several colors and finishes and others are best left in their natural state because they won't take paint well. You could choose green furniture like the original Adirondack chairs or perhaps you would prefer yellow, white or blue. You can literally find Adirondack furniture in every color of the rainbow.
In order to bring together just about any design scheme for your cottage you need some finishing touches. So once you have decided on the pieces and location of Adirondack furniture you desire, the finishing touches could include some sort of lighting fixture or a collection of candles. Maybe a lantern or some planter boxes to bring a little bit of nature even closer would work. You could also include a cooler or other container to keep refreshing beverages nearby.
You may also want to create an outdoor dining area at your cottage complete with long wood table, matching chairs and perhaps even an outdoor chandelier. Soon your cottage will always be welcoming and ready for enjoying alone or with family and friends. Relaxation will come naturally once you take the initiative of creating a memorable vacation space that you can enjoy whenever the mood strikes.
