The Original Cookhouse
The original cookhouse was the heart of our gatherings at the pond. It was a place filled with laughter and good times. Papa’s concrete barbecue was built simply: a brick frame that held a large metal grate over a wood fire. While it produced incredible meals, the cleanup was another story. After every use, someone had to shovel out the ash before the next cookout could begin.
The new Cookhouse
Today, we have upgraded this beloved memory into something even more special. We’ve built a much larger, 20 by 50 structure and are currently installing an outdoor kitchen complete with a full-size fridge. Once we screen it in, the cookhouse will be available to rent for parties, weddings, and other celebrations.
