I have always read "cottage" = "la casita" or sometimes I have seen "casita de campo" (country cottage)

Here in NM people always refer to their casita when talking about a smaller home.

Welcome to the Forum!

The site translation tool gives this:

casa (f) de campo, chalé (m)

Maybe a native speaker can tell us which word is preferred?
