a small summer cottage.
Type: 2. Preservation — This sense retains the general meaning of bungalow, a 'one-storied house', and adds the sense of ‘summer house’ (OED-3 s.v. "bungalow"). Bungalow is preserved in Canada as a regional term for the more widespread "summer cottage" (see Chart 1). The COD-2 notes that the term is from Cape Breton (see also the 2006 and 2007 quotations).
