An Exciting Weekend of Fishing Coming to The Cottonwood Cove

If you're a fishing enthusiast, then our marina & RV campground on the Missouri River is the perfect place for you! You've got access to fun on the river at The Cottonwood Cove all season long, and throughout that season you'll find some incredible fishing tournaments to take part in. 

Here is a couple that we highly suggest you check out. They are both on the same weekend, so you might as well camp out here with us and enjoy both days of fishing!

Carp City Open
Sunday, May 19, 2019
The Tekamah, NE/"Carp City Open" is a non-profit organization that has been around since 1977. They sponsor a fishing tournament in the area once a month from April-September and The Cottonwood Cove will be home to this great day of fishing on May 19. This series of tournaments is open, so anglers are invited to fish just one or fish them all.  

There will be an 8 am shotgun start taking off from our marina, and the tournament will end at 1 pm SHARP! Memberships are $15 per person, plus $15 per boat due on the day of the tournament. Prizes will be given out each month for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th places as well as one for "Big Fish." The monetary amount of the prizes depends on the number of entrants. You can find out more about this group on their Facebook page. 



If you already have an RV lot reserved at riverfront vacation destination in the Midwest, you're only a short walk away from all the fun that's always happening around here. If you don't, it's not too late! We have a handful of lots available in our newest 2019 addition, but hurry because they won't last long!

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!

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!

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...
