Deutsch Begriff oder Satz: Cowboylager
In einem Wald am Rande der Relaisstation stoßen(character's names) auf ein Cowboylager.

I know one can say campsite, but isn't there a more specific term associated with cowboys? I just can't think of it right now! Any help would be greatly appreciated

Notiz(en) an den/des Fragesteller(s)
Rebecca Garber: 3:25pm Jun 6, 2007: Are there cowboys there? A (cowboy) campsite would be a regular location used for camping. A (cowboy) camp/fire would be a group of cowboys already there. "No one responsible leaves a campfire unattended." my great-uncle, a cowboy @ the Flying A.
Courtney Sliwinski: 4:07pm Jun 6, 2007: Yes there are cowboys there (actually bandits that the grooup mistakes for cowboys), and there are also houses and sheds. It seems to be a little more than just a campsite.
BirgitBerlin: 4:09pm Jun 6, 2007: A Lager is still a camp. No matter how fortified.

Zustimmung Darin Fitzpatrick: Or campsite. It might be part of a "cattle drive," but that's a whole trip and not referred to in the original.

Zustimmung Ken Cox: further to Darin's comment: to me 'cowboy camp' suggests that cowboys are present at the site, while 'cowboy campsite' suggests that no cowboys are present at the site at the particular time..

Zustimmung Woodstock: "set up camp" and "break camp" are the terms familiar from my youth when Westerns were very popular TV and movie fare

line cabin/way station

Erklärung:
If this building is associated with a ranch.

A typical line cabin included: bunkhouse, cooking area, storage sheds and barn that were used by cowboys who were riding the fences of the ranch that owned the line cabin. They were often vacant for weeks at a time, depending on where the cattle were.
I know cabin sounds like just one building, but they had several outbuildings, because they were designed to be independent entities for the months that they were in use.
They tended to be several hours ride from the main ranch, making 'commuting' unpopular.

If your building is associated with the relay station, then this would by a way station, again a series of buildings including a main building, storage sheds, and a barn. Again, this is supposed to function as an independent entity, far enough away from the relay station that the commute is unpopular. It would have a smallish staff who would be in residence intermittently, depending on the stage schedules.
