Here are some activities to keep you entertained through a wintry week at a rented cottage:

1. Build a fire. You can cook meals over the fire, toast marshmallows to make s'mores, or just cozy up to the fire while you read a book. 
2. Play board games. With a whole week to spare, you can dive into a complex game like Small World or Mysterium, or stick with classics like Monopoly, Scrabble, or Chess.
3. Bake. Everyone loves to indulge in baked goods during the cold winter months. You can make pastries or muffins for breakfast, or cookies and other dessert treats. 
4. Build a snowman. If you have a lot of people with you, you could even build something more elaborate from the snow, like a snowperson family or even a snow castle. 
5. Have a snowball fight. If you want to make a day of it, establish teams and rules to make the snowball fight into a competitive sport. 
6. Go cross-country skiing. You can do this as a group activity, or go solo for a meditative experience in the snow. 
7. Go snowshoeing. Again, this can be a fun activity to enjoy with friends and family or a refreshing solitary experience. 
8. Watch your favorite movies. With a whole week to spare, you could plan a marathon and watch all the movies in a series--for instance, all the Star Wars films or all the movies from the Harry Potter series. 
9. Arts and crafts. A week is a good amount of time to dive into your favorite creative endeavors, whether that means knitting, painting, sculpting, wood carving, or any other hobby that calls to you.
10. Go sledding. If you have enough people and enough sleds, you could organize a sled racing tournament to keep this activity exciting throughout the entire week.
