It’s no surprise that summer, warm weather, and vacation getaways are on everyone’s mind right now. In that season between winter and spring when the weather goes from hot to cold in a matter of minutes, and everyone is feeling the effects of the season, we all need something to look forward to. Opening day for The Cottonwood Cove is scheduled for April 4th, and while it is still a few weeks away, there is no better time to start securing your plans than now. Here are five reasons to make The Cottonwood Cove your vacation destination in Nebraska this year and how we intend to help you!

When you're stuck indoors away from the cold January weather and dreaming about what your new year is going to be like, imagining yourself at The Cottonwood Cove is a wonderful and exciting distraction. Our Midwest RV campground & marina on the Missouri River is full of folks just like you who enjoy traveling, nature, good times, and incredible people! Here are 3 great reasons why you should become one of our members in 2019.  Stay Close to the Fun The scenery surrounding our little slice of heaven in Nebraska is reason enough to rent an RV Lot at The Cottonwood Cove, but we've got even more than that waiting for you here! Once you park the RV in your personal spot, you're just a short walk (or golf cart ride) away from all kinds of fun and excitement.  The Lodge offers a delicious menu and some of the tastiest drinks around, including our signature Watermelon.

The Cottonwood Cove is a LOT more than an RV park and marina. We consider our members and the wonderful people that frequent our Lodge to be family, which is a big reason we schedule lots of fun events for everyone to get together and enjoy. If you're looking for something fun to do and some awesome people to experience it with, then you really need to check out our list of annual events in the Midwest .  To give you an idea of the great times that are waiting for you when you join us at The Cottonwood Cove, here is a look at a few recent events that we hosted. Some of our events take us on a "field trip" off-property, some are members-only so that neighbors can get to know each other a little better, and many are fun for all welcoming everyone in the Blair area.   The Cottonwood Cove Classic We hosted our 2nd annual golf tournament on Friday, June 22, 2018, and it was another huge success. Everyone was so excited about it, the event filled up pretty q...

Your favorite summer vacation destination in the Midwes t has lots of fun things planned for the 4th of July this year, plus even more excitement coming your way throughout the rest of the month.

Here is what July at The Cottonwood Cove has waiting for you.  4th of July Festivities Independence Day falls in the middle of the week this year, but instead of being annoyed that we don't get a 3-day weekend, we're looking at the bright side and extending the party even longer!

Not only do we have fun holiday events planned, but Cottonwood Cove also has amazing amenities that are fun for the whole family.  We have the most modern campground in the midwest , an amazing lodge with a restaurant and multiple bars, an incredible riverfront stage with live music, and a marina on the Missouri River.  This summer, we just added a brand new swim up bar, playground, and riverfront front RV lot.  Grab your friends and family and come enjoy everything Cottonwood...

The best live music in the Midwest comes from the riverfront stage at our RV Resort & Marina on the Missouri River . Most musical acts perform songs from a variety of popular bands, and sometimes even a few songs of their very own. This summer, throughout July and August, The Cottonwood Cove has an incredible lineup of tribute bands to entertain you every Saturday. A tribute band is one that covers only the songs of one particular artist that has become well-known and well-loved over their career rather than lots of different artists. Often, they are so good, it seems like you are actually listening to the original band perform the music! That is definitely the case with the lineup we have in store for you this season.  July 7 Bad Medicine: A Tribute to Bon Jovi With years of experience emulating their favorite band, Bad Medicine has the look, sound, and professionalism that is second to none. They are one of the few Bon Jovi tribute bands that have had th...
