Cowan Lake WAS: Cincy Info / Questions

[sad_rocc at yahoo.com (Dan Smith)]

I'll share a site with someone, at state parks you can usually have 3 tents on a site. Can't share a tent though, I only have a small dome tent and I may have Spud the Wonder Pug with me as well. I have a small table top grill I would bring (propane). Can bring beer as well, Colorado seems to be the land of microbrews. So we have what, 4 people into the camping thing? Rhett, me, Mike and Tim? Anyone else?

Well sir, I have no tent as of yet, but do plan on getting a nice big one very soon as the wife and I love to camp. Speaking of which, she will not be in attendance, although I am trying to get this kid I used to work with to run co-pilot for me. He's into air cooled dubs. In fact, he bought my dad's bug.

At any rate, I'm looking to purchase a tent that should hold 5 comfortably (me, wife, kids, maybe dogs... ie: BIG). I would gladly offer a bunk to share in the cost of a camp site. Wait, did you say beer? I'll bring a cooler!

ps. Whenever I mention this excursion to her, I get rolled eyes and a look that means "You're a dork!" Oh well, she just needs to spend more time in the rocco instead of her Trailblazer.

It LOOKS like it could be as Mapquest shows this:

And the park map shows this:

So it looks as if all the camping spots are on the North side of the lake
(next to the beach and everything. By the way, guests are allowed until
10p).

Bonus!!

But NOW when I look up the cost per night it's @ $18 per.

Say Mike, Gotta tent? Wanna split the cost of a site?
If you are S.O.-less and stuff, I've got the wife waffling on whether she
can afford the off time (still trying to get her into the whole VW thing,
she has this thing for Cavaliers....Ewwwwww!), but if she sticks to her
guns I'll be a loner that is not too socially unpalatable and will have
BEER (such a magic word that).
I think most of my food for the wknd is going to be fast and cheap (e.g.
I will NOT be bringing a grill.....won't have the room, and I can't
stomach MRE's).


Still looks wide open for camping spots in most of the areas for that
time, and it also has the LAKE w/ the BEACH! Might make for a nice mid day
getaway to cool off (depending on ambient temps).

Your local noise maker,
