My weekend

This weekend I went to the cottage of my dad. On saturday my dad made popcorn, that tasted just fine by the way, and we watched the movie "The black swan". On sunday we went to the river nearby with a friend of my dad and his dog. During the walk to the river I could see the national flower of Chile, the "Copihue", I didn´t saw it for at least 5 years. Then we return to the cottage and have launch. Finally we went back to the city with my dad.

Corrections

This weekend I went to the cottage of my dadmy dad's cottage.

On sSaturday my dad made popcorn, (that/which tasted just fine by the way), and we watched the movie "The bBlack sSwan".

If you meant to say the popcorn tasted good, I would change "just fine" to "nice" or "good" or "yum" or something like that, as "just fine" can imply it was sort of average or that it could've been not nice, but it turned out to taste nice.

On sSunday, we went to the river nearby with a friend of my dad and his dog.

If by "we" you mean yourself, the friend of your dad and his dog, then I would change it to "I" since you haven't mentioned the other people yet, and the 'with' usage later already implies you go with other people. If this "we" also includes your dad then it might be good to specify that.

DuringOn the walk to the river I could see the national flower of Chile, the "Copihue", I diwhich I hadn´'t saw iteen for/in at least 5 years.

You could also say "While walking to the river". "During the walk to the river" sounds a little bit unnatural.

You could also say "I saw the national flower of Chile".

Then, we returned to the cottage and haved launch.

I wouldn't start the sentence with "then" but instead something else like "after that".

Finally, we went back to the city with my dad.

Watch word order and possessives

During the walk to the river I could seesaw the national flower of Chile, the "Copihue", I didn´t sawwhich I haven't seen it for at least 5 years.

Just saying you "saw" the flower instead of that you "could see" it makes more sense.
Didn't saw is not grammatically correct. You need "haven't seen"

careful with verb tenses - everything else is in the past so this sentence should be too.

We would use the past perfect here. The past perfect is used to say how long something lasted (duration) before another event occurred in the past.

Also, we wouldn't say "didn't saw". In the simple past it would be either "didn't see" or sometimes "never saw".

Then we returned to the cottage and haved launch.

Use simple past here because this event happened in the past.

Great job! And this sounds like a lovely weekend!
