The Cottonwood Cove Marina & RV Resort

National Watermelon Day is coming up next week on Friday, August 3, 2018. Why should we care about that here at The Cottonwood Cove ? Well, as you should already know, our RV resort & marina on the Missouri River happens to be the Home of the Watermelon ! Granted, it's not the food item that most people are familiar with that we are known for, but rather our signature cocktail that guests at The Cottonwood Cove can't seem to get enough of. In honor of National Watermelon Day, we've gathered a few fun facts about watermelons followed by a few more fun facts about the Watermelon cocktail served at our vacation destination in the Midwest .    Watermelon Fun Facts -  IT'S NOT A FRUIT!!! We don't know about you guys, but we had absolutely no idea that a watermelon is actually classified as a vegetable! It is a member of the same family as cucumbers, pumpkins, and squash. - China grows more watermelons than any other country. The fruit, oops, we mean ve...

The wait is finally over... the brand new pool and swim-up bar at The Cottonwood Cove are now open! Quite a few guests at our Midwest RV Resort & Marina have given it a try, and absolutely everyone loves it! It looks like the rest of the season is going to be even more fun than we're used to.  The Pool The weather forced us to push back opening day for the best 21+ pool in the Midwest , but we plugged through and the result is a beautiful and fantastic spot to keep cool all summer long! If you thought hanging out on the patio outside The Cottonwood Cove Lodge was fun before, we've now made it even more exciting.  Pool hours will be every Tuesday-Thursday from 3-9 pm and Friday-Sunday from 11 am-9 pm .  Make sure that you've got a swimsuit with you when you head our way because this new pool is simply irresistible.   The Swim-Up Bar Our awesome pool is connected to what is now only the 2nd swim-up bar in all of Nebraska ! We don't want you to...

If you're in the Midwest and searching for an incredible riverfront bar & restaurant in Nebraska , we've got the perfect place for you. The Lodge at The Cottonwood Cove serves up the most delicious food and refreshing drinks every Tuesday-Sunday with great customer service and an incredible river view. Our regular menu is filled with all kinds of delicious dishes. You'll find Burgers, Pork Tenderloins, Phillies, Salads, Pizza, and so much more. There's even a special "Little Dinghy's" menu for the kids. Each weeknight we choose one menu item and a couple of drinks from the bar to feature at special discounted prices.

You can even add "the works"  to your taco  (onions, bl...

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...
