Lenoir NC is a quaint, charming old town located in beautiful, serene Caldwell County and is surely one place to visit, vacation and even call home. A city that acquired its name from former North Carolina statesman, William Lenoir, Lenoir boosts a true all-American feel.

Lenoir is any outdoor aficionado’s dream destination.

Do you hate harsh winters but want to live in the Blue Ridge Mountains? The Coves Mountain River Club is a perfect solution with its mild four season Lenoir weather. Located in the foothills just 30 minutes from Blowing Rock, it is a great place for retirees to relax, enjoy the rich heritage that Lenoir offers, and really become one with nature. Folks here wake up each and every morning, stepping onto their deck with a hot cup of coffee, and soak in the sights of lush mountains and sounds of the Johns River. That is The Coves Mountain River Club.

Part of living in one of the area’s best NC mountain communities means truly appreciating what nature has to offer. Stroll and hike along the mountains trails, picnic trailside, kayak in the Johns River and partake in community events such as evening cook-off competitions and yoga classes at the mountaintop lodge. Enjoy all of this in its entirety, at The Coves Mountain River Club in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

The Caldwell County real estate development boosts a host of amenities for even the pickiest of enthusiasts to enjoy. The Round Mountain Ranch equestrian center, miles of hiking trails, and Evelyn’s Vineyard are just some of the soulful activities that are offered here for residents of The Coves. Finish the day off by jumping in the Johns River at the swimming hole or kayaking along the river.

Hiking, swimming, horseback riding and kayaking are all part of the outdoor lifestyle you will lead here. Feel at home in The Coves Mountain River Club with custom built homes capturing the beauty of living in the mountains surrounded by some of the best mountain towns in North Carolina.
