There are 5 miles of frontage on the Johns River, with areas to put in and take out your kayak, wade and fish, picnic, or gather round a stone fire pit. The crown jewel of The Coves is the magnificent post and beam constructed clubhouse, Pisgah Lodge, located on one of the highest peaks. There, you'll enjoy a saline pool, fitness center, locker rooms, full kitchen, lending library, pool table, fire pits, wrap around porches, decks, and overlooks to take in 360º views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, South Mountains, and Brushy Mountains. The Coves is a Firewise USA® Community, a program of the National Fire Protection Association, that helps neighbors organize to reduce wildfire risk, harden homes, and create defensible space by managing vegetation and preparing for wildfires. Down by the river you can garden your private plot at the Community Garden or join your neighbors to care for and harvest the community cooperative vineyard. Pickle-ball and shuffleboard courts, putting green, and a picnic pavilion are located at another Coves's park, Wyatt's Landing. Additional amenities include 2 Equestrian Centers and a Dog Park. Join your neighbors for social events, excursions, hiking, travel, yoga. 500,000 acre Pisgah National Forest and the Wilson Creek Wild and Scenic River Area are across the road! 1.25 hour drive to Charlotte or Asheville, minutes to Lenoir, Blowing Rock, Morganton, and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
