 Not what it used to be July 30, 2010
Danna Snow
I had been a subscriber to Country Living for many years and used to love it. The older issues of Country Living were authentically country. Now, they might as well call the magazine Country Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous because those seem to be the only kinds of homes and people they feature. If that's the kind of stuff you like it's great but it's not me, which is why I canceled my subscription. If they ever bring the old Country Living back I'll renew.
 Escape to the country July 26, 2010

I have been a subscriber to country living for many years. I am a city born and raised woman and long to escape to the country style of living. This magazine does that for me. I love it and recommend it highly.
Good service, so-so magazine July 17, 2010

The magazine I got for a great deal on amazon. However inside the magazine it is mostly advertisements. It does have some good articles. It features a lot on antiques more than the country theme. I got this as a gift for someone. It always arrives on time so no complaints in the delivery department.
Nice magazine to relax with May 23, 2010

So far only received one issue, but used to subscribe to it many years ago. Pictures are nice and I intend on getting many ideas to spruce up my 22 year old home.
 Lost it's spark! May 18, 2010

This magazine has really gone down hill, coincidentally when the newest editor (Sarah Gray Miller) took over. This magazine used to be my absolute favorite! The features on women entrepreneurs, the crafts, the fresh & unique ideas.
The most recent issue (May 2010) however, thought it was a centerfold-worthy idea to (get this) display family photos in a stairwell! This is the sort of creativity CL is producing these days - family photos in a stairwell... I don't know who they think they're reaching, since pretty much every home in America with a stairwell has probably had family photos displayed in it at one time or another. The gall, I think, to pass such ideas off as fresh & new.
What will they feature next, hanging a kitchen towel from your stove handle? Putting magnets on a refrigerator? Photography books cleverly displayed on a coffee table?
I would not be surprised if their "creative" team is getting inspiration by flipping through 1992's issues of Woman's Day.
This magazine is surely no longer worth the money, especially now that it's 50% ads made to look like even more home decorating "ideas". Yes, even for $1, which is Amazon's cost for a year's subscription. It's still not worth it, it's that bad. If you must appease your curiosity, I would suggest maybe flipping through it once a month in the grocery store if you have the time. Most likely you will find, however, that's it's still not worthy buying.
