If Ontario's painfully short summers have one upside, it's autumn. Not only does the season's colourful foliage elevate the entire province's Instagram for months, but it turns cottage trips into literal folk art paintings.

On Thursday, Airbnb revealed its 2022 picks for the coziest cottages in Canada, and six of the featured spots are located in Ontario. Alberta didn't get any, so maybe it isn't calling you after all.

So, if the thought of lodging up with bae in a toasty warm cabin for a couple of hundred bucks sounds appealing to you, prepare to be enthralled.
