Carol Glover ~ The Cottage Wife

Hi! I'm Carol Glover.

I'm an Author, Blogger, nature & cottage lifestyle lover (& so much more).

My husband Brian & I enjoy our cottage on the Bruce Peninsula in Ontario, Canada. We’re a super handy couple with great imaginations and a desire to live in concert with the flora and fauna we’ve plunked ourselves into.

I hope you enjoy the stories, tips & resources we've found to make life at the cottage even more relaxed and fun.
