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

Image
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...

There's ALWAYS Something Fun Going On At The Cottonwood Cove!

Image
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...

Do NOT Miss the Exciting Cottonwood Reunion on Saturday, June 16, 2018!

Image
The Cottonwood has been around in some form since the late 1960's. It has been a HUGE name for The Cottonwood Cove of today to live up to, but with hard work and the help of all of you, we're doing it! Some things have changed over the years, but the vision of a great place for everyone who loves the outdoors, the river, boating, biking, and now camping has always been the same for our RV Resort & Marina on the Missouri River . On Saturday, June 16, 2018 , we will celebrate all that we've been, that we are now, and that we will become at a great big exciting Cottonwood Reunion!  Countless people over the last few decades have made some of their favorite memories right here on the Missouri River. (Or as we fondly like to call it, the longest lake in the state!) Most of those memories are wonderful, but even the not-so-great ones have done their part to get us to where we are today. This is a very popular vacation destination in the Midwest where everyone is wel...
