Our place isn't really a 'cabin', it's more like a townhouse style condo, so we just say we're "heading out to the lake" most of the time.

Damn, "the lake". That one is insanely common in Ontario too, and it's really funny to hear people refer to it when describing their property that isn't on, or really near, a lake.
"Camp" is pretty common in the NE USA as well. I found in NW Ontario about a 50/50 mix between "cabin" and "cottage" when I lived there. Or, as us po' folk would sometimes be honest, "the trailer".
(This is about all I can contribute as I have no wonderful shots to share, neither of our families ever could afford a second home although I will say the $30,000 condos in Vegas have me tempted)
