Hi teachers~
I am looking for a name for a house people have for special occasions (vacation ot weekend)
Beach or mountain (hose/home/cabin)
Which one is the most common word?
Is there anything else?
Thanks in advance~
In Ontario, a lot of people have a cottage, often beside a lake in the forest.

It's regional, so it depends where you live. Where I grew up in the North Central region of the U.S., it was "cottage", but in other areas I hear "cabin". There are no doubt other favorite words for that idea in other parts of the world.
