5 Reasons We're Thankful This Year At The Cottonwood Cove

Looking back at the 2018 season at The Cottonwood Cove, we have a LOT of reasons to feel thankful! Sure, HEAVY rain tried to spoil things for us at our RV Campground & Marina on the Missouri River, and the road construction was a bit inconvenient, but none of that stopped us from having fun! 

 A lot was accomplished and a ton of wonderful memories were made. Here are just a few of the many reasons that 2018 is a season we will always look back on fondly. 

New Amenities
This year visitors to The Cottonwood Cove were able to enjoy a brand new 21+ pool and swim-up bar! (We can now boast 1 of only 2 swim-up bars in all of Nebraska!) It was most definitely worth the wait, and we're looking forward to jumping right back in as soon as the weather warms up next spring.

We also now have an excellent playground for the youngest visitors to The Cottonwood Cove. A bit later than anticipated, but better late than never! The equipment was ordered months ago but only arrived at the end of October. On Friday, November 2, we had some amazing members volunteer their time and skills to get everything set up. We now have an awesome playground ready and waiting to be enjoyed next season!  

New Members 
We love and appreciate our existing members. They are a very important reason why so many people want to be a part of our great big happy Cottonwood family. As a matter of fact, their love of our vacation destination in the Midwest is part of what helped us to have a record-breaking new membership year! 

 Typically during the off-season, we sell about 4 lots because the majority of our new members wait until April-June to join us. Between October and March of 2018, we signed up 10 times our usual amount of memberships with 40 lots!  

New Lots
Luckily we added more lots to accommodate the popularity of becoming a member at The Cottonwood Cove. Everyone knew about the planned Riverfront lots for 2018, but due to the increased interest in staying at our RV Campground in the Midwest, we made a surprise announcement in March that we were adding River Shores West behind the newest Riverfront addition with 27 more RV lots. 

 Besides being extremely thankful that so many people want to hang out around here with us, we are also thrilled to say that we only have a handful of the River Shores West lots still open! (So if you know of anyone that would like to join our happy Cottonwood family, have them give Steve a call at 402-960-1515.)  

Fun Events
Our annual events are always a huge success and a big reason for that is because everyone that joins us for them sure knows how to have a great time! We are thankful for the popularity of the parties and events that we host here at The Cottonwood Cove, and we can't wait to do them all again next season. These included (but were not limited to):

  • The Cottonwood Cove Classic Golf Tournament
  • Cottonwood Cove Reunion
  • Members' Breakfast
  • Golf Cart Poker Run
  • Members' BBQ Contest
  • 4th of July Golf Cart Parade
  • Cornhuskers Football on Saturdays
  • Halloween Trick or Booze Costume Party
  • The T&A Party (Don't forget, our Halfway to T&A Party is coming up on January 26, 2019!)  


 Amazing Live Music
The final thing that we are thankful for today (but there are so many more that we just don't have room to list) are all of the amazingly talented performers that graced our riverfront stage this past season. We had lots of local favorites entertain us as well as many musicians that traveled quite a ways to be here. Our Tribute Band Concert Series was a huge hit too, and so exciting to watch! We're really looking forward to next season's concert lineup and we hope that you are too. 

Thank you all for the wonderful memories that were created during the 2018 season here at The Cottonwood Cove. It's a wonderful place, but the amazing people that we get to meet are what make it truly special. 

We hope that you all have a very happy Thanksgiving holiday. Be sure to keep in touch with us through all of our social media channels during the off-season. Also, if you haven't already signed up for our monthly newsletter, head on over to www.TheCottonwoodCove.com right now and get that done.

It's Pool Time at The Cottonwood Cove! (Finally!!!)

Image
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...

Home Of Nebraska's Favorite Drink - The Watermelon!

Image
Every person has a favorite "go-to" cocktail. If you've ever had the chance to try the signature drink at our RV resort & marina in Nebraska , there's a good chance your favorite is the Watermelon! Haven't had one yet? The Cottonwood Cove is open for our 2018 season, so now is the perfect time to discover this refreshing drink! Home of the Watermelon Way back in January of 1982, George Rybin, son of the owners of The Cottonwood Cove at the time, as well as a future owner himself, went on a Carribean cruise. He was accompanied by his then-girlfriend, Sharon Young, who worked at The Cottonwood Cove Marina.  While visiting the islands, they both fell in love with a delicious, knock-you-on-your-a$$ drink called, you guessed it, the Watermelon. It was obvious that this incredible cocktail would be a huge hit back home, so the couple was determined to bring it back to the states to share with everyone at The Cottonwood Cove.  After much persuasion, Sharo...

Instead, it just gets us dreaming and excited about spring arriving (it's not that far off) and opening day (March 30, 2019) for our RV campground & marina on the Missouri River . That's when our Midwest vacation destination becomes the most incredible place to hang out and enjoy nature, great food, awesome drinks, fantastic people, and incredible live music!  When you have an RV lot reserved at The Cottonwood Cove, you've always got a place to park that keeps you close to all of that action.
