God’s Creation at The Cove

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, The Cove offers space for guests to slow down—away from daily distractions and the noise of a busy world.

Long before teaching starts, guests often spend time outdoors, walking wooded paths, sitting along the trails, or taking in the views that surround the property. These moments of stillness allow guests to pause, pray and praise the Lord for the beauty found in His creation.

Here are photos of tranquil moments captured at The Cove:
