*******************************************************

*The spots I like are throwing distance from a lake and walking distance from the bath houses, water and toilets: Campsite#2- Sites 25,27 and 29. I will not be reserving these sites so everyone can pay "per night". There are tons of sites available anyway, I just happen to think these are some of the nicest.



These are very basic campsites. No water, no electricity, no Cable tv. Awesome.

All are welcome!


I need a head count so I know how many sites we will use. I'll be in touch with The Cove to let you guys know what the Camp#, and Site #('s) will be.

Come camp out and relax!

Post up if you can attend- I will keep track of everything. Hope to see friends, and meet some new ones!------ Antman



The link above explains everything, but here are some details-


*Every road in The Cove is unpaved and either gravel or dirt. There are true offroad trails but they are reserved for big group events that they hold.

*There are easy/intermediate trails to drive on or hike/Mt Bike (see my pics below!)

*There are ATV trails

*Lots of lakes to kayak, canoe, fish, etc. The fishing looks great with Bass, Walleye, Pike, Crappie. Dinner should be good!

*Boats/Canoes can be rented at $10/hr, or bring your own @ $10/day. No gas motors on the lakes.

*They have a rifle range too!

*Alcohol is welcome and pretty much mandatory.



*It is beautiful and quiet here. I fell in love with the place.

******These would be our campsites (Bath houses with hot water and toilets are in the building to the right, There is an outhouse closer for...emergencies):

^^^^^^The owner encouraged me to check out the "Camp Outlook" which gains 600' of elevation in 3/4 of a mile. He said it's an easy trail. If you have never been offroading before (me) it has plenty of pucker factor!

I got turned around in the mountain and wound up on some ATV trails and earned my pinstripes! These will buff out No Problemo.

I'm in! Convinced the GF to go, too...

EDIT: Any chance we can convince them we're a "big event" and get access to the other trails?

Well, I got the vibe that "maybe", but leaning towards no. It's private property and the owner guides the trail runs. He said some are pretty extreme...

I guess it depends on how many show up and how nice we are. :)

BTW- "Big Events" for them are in the thousands. They have a stage for that...

My wife said no water/no camp- so I'll be bringing my cousin with all his guns!

I'll keep a list of attendees in the original post. Sweeeeeet.
 
Man I wish I could come I'd love to hang with you guys...Have fun and take plenty of pictures...be Brockeverly for 2 days
 
Place looks awesome, great find! 530+ miles is a bit of a stretch for me for a weekend but I sure would like to see the already infamous "Antman eyebrows" hehe. I'll ponder for awhile.
 
Sorry D- missed the question. Girls aren't coming this year. It's a little too rugged for them yet! Give 'em a few. Yours?

Nah man, my daughter has been boondock camping in the middle of nowhere since she was about 2. Gotta start em early!
 
The cove also has an outdoor range... you bring it, you can fire it.... :D It's not too far, so I might bring up the mp5 and an AK.

MAYBE PHILLY WILL BRING SOME HK GOODNESS....

Hmm. I just assumed you were bringing yours. I guess I could just set the TV to Nick and leave her a few boxes of Coco Puffs and she will be fine. Right? :)

The HK was sold when I was poor but I almost like the PTR better. Almost. But I think I may have a few other goodiees laying around somewhere. Need to check the laws about transporting a small arsenal and mega rounds across state lines. Somehow I need to get through the Commie State of MD.
 
YES, good dates Antman, this will be bookended by a west coast flight and a wedding for me, but I should be able to come!

I have a bunch of guns, mostly just boring .22's for target shooting and shotguns for hunting. I DO have a replica Colt Army 1865 Black Powder Revolver though, which is a lot of fun to shoot so I'll try and bring that along!
