We have extensive experience with cottage mortgages. Our advisors intimately know the Manitoba market because they live and work here.
For example, we know that many local cottages are on government or leased land, so we finance those as well. And many Manitobans have cottages in Ontario, so Cambrian also finances cottages in Northwest Ontario.

When purchasing a cottage, you need a minimum down payment of 25% of the purchase price of the cottage. You cannot use the Home Buyers’ Plan to fund a cottage mortgage, which means you’ll need to tap into your other savings or the equity of your home.
Buying a cottage can provide joy and relaxation for your family for years to come, but there are many things to think about before going out and buying your slice of paradise. Here are things you should consider:
What types of activities are you looking for?
How will you get to the cottage?
Where do you want to purchase?
What are your options for water and electricity?
Cottages have different expenses than a residential home. A water-accessible cottage means you’ll need to buy and maintain a boat. Consider the cost of gas to travel to your cottage as well as any additional costs for drilling a well or pumping water from the lake or keeping the cottage heated over the winter.
You may also consider renting a cottage in your chosen region to get a sense of what to expect if you decided to buy your own.
Before cottage-hunting, it’s important to first get pre-approved for a mortgage. This will confirm the maximum mortgage you can afford so you can keep your search within your price range. And it will also make you a more attractive buyer since your financing has been pre-approved with a financial institution.
