“Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain without knowing that true happiness is obtained in the journey and the form used to reach the top of the hill.” - Gabriel Garcia Marquez

The Coves offers homesites with some of the most breath taking views in the North Carolina mountains. With a westerly view, many home sites have a 70 mile + long range view with Grandfather Mountain or Table Rock Mountain as the back drop. If you prefer to come down the mountain, select a home site which is situated on a bluff above the Johns River. If you prefer a wooded lot, you will be in a position to walk out your back door and walk down a nature trail to the Johns River. The Coves offers something for everyone and is one of the most reasonably priced North Carolina mountain properties starting at $39,000.
