★★★★★M MWe spent an amazing 3 days at Cowboy's Rest with a large group of families. The camp staff was fantastic, the facilities were beautiful and very well maintained. The property is stunning, a hidden gem down a long and lonely dirt road that ends in a lush green oasis. There are so many different options for lodging; a main lodge, covered wagons, a huge Teepee, and many traditional cabins. You can even park an RV on their large field. We enjoyed a bunch of different activities; paintball, archery, obstacle course, climbing wall, a Sunday service in their chapel, gaga ball (a favorite among the kids), basketball court, and a large pond with a flume (slide), water obstacle course, swimming hole, paddleboarding, kayaking, paddle boating, fishing... so many amazing opportunities to enjoy the beautiful outdoors! I highly recommend Cowboy's Rest for a group or family camp experience.
