THE COVE

The Cove Lounge is the perfect place to relax and enjoy yourself. Our custom built wooden bar offers an inviting, comfortable, and fun
atmosphere, while tables allow for sit-down style dinners or drinks. 

Our experienced bartenders can suit all tastes; Seasonal cocktail menus featuring balanced drinks made with love and house-made syrups are available year-round. Carrying 12 beers on tap with seasonal rotations,
an extensive wine list, and a private cellar, if you’re into wine or beer, we’ve got you covered.

The Cove is open year-round! Open to resort and non-resort guests.

Our full restaurant menu is available from 11:30 AM -9:00 PM daily. After 9:00 PM, we serve our late night menu…good pizza.

Come on in and enjoy a beverage at the bar, play a game of pool or Pac-Man, or take it to go and cozy up by the fire!
