Long Cove Completes Construction of Community Amenities to Kick Off “Lake Season”

June 24, 2013 - PRLog -- Long Cove (http://www.long-cove.com/), a new private residential community on Cedar Creek Lake just over an hour from Dallas, has finished construction of its upscale amenities (http://long-cove.com/amenities) that are accessible to all Long Cove residents and their guests. The new amenities are designed to make Long Cove a resort-style getaway that is close to home yet provides a relaxed and luxurious environment lending itself to quality time with family and friends.

Long Cove provides the entire family a safe and heart-warming place to relax, enjoy, recreate and share memorable experiences with one another that can be passed down from generation to generation. One of the best parts about Long Cove is that every home, in addition to the Lake Club, has a pristine view of Cedar Creek Lake’s deep waters that surround the community. Construction and layout of each individual property is specifically engineered to provide unobstructed views so there’s not a “bad seat in the house.”

The Lake Club is the heart of Long Cove, boasting sparkling swimming pools, sandy beach areas, a 125-foot waterslide, fitness facility, game room, outdoor kitchen, fire pit and club room. The club room features spacious gathering areas, a fireplace, large screen television and beautiful lake views overlooking the pool deck. From the active lifestyle to lounging, the Lake Club provides something for everyone!

Long Cove’s additional recreation-focused amenities include a fishing and canoeing pond, a toy barn with all the gear and sporting goods needed to play a pickup game of football, basketball, soccer or tennis, playing fields, sport courts, and miles of hiking and biking trails. With a regulation-size football field, tennis courts and basketball court, which can all be configured to accommodate early or advanced skill levels, the whole family can get involved and play nearly any game under the sun.

The amphitheater area, located adjacent to the Lake Club, includes a performance stage and customized lawn area that slopes down toward the lake and accommodates a large inflatable screen for community-wide movie nights or performances. This spacious gathering area is the perfect place to hang out. Whether you’re up for an impromptu picnic on the lawn or looking for a relaxing oasis to listen to music, this is one of many great places to make new memories and meet new friends at Long Cove.

Other amenities and services available at Long Cove include the community dock, which adjusts to changing lake levels and projects far enough into the community’s deep-water cove to serve any boat. In addition, the boat valet and concierge are community favorites, which take the headache out of boat ownership by providing delivery from dry storage to your dock, fueling, cleaning and maintenance services.

“We are pleased to complete this vital phase of Long Cove’s development,” said Long Cove President Christopher Kelsey. “The quality amenities offered by Long Cove set our community apart from all other Texas lakefront neighborhoods. We believe that the combination of our stunning facilities, pristine location and quality service program make Long Cove a carefree environment that provides an easy, comfortable getaway for multiple generations of families and friends to enjoy together.”

Long Cove has already seen positive response, selling out of its phase one homesites just a few short months after launching sales efforts. The community is currently in its second phase of development, which includes a six-acre expansion of Cedar Creek Lake, the creation of a new cove and the release of 16 lakefront homesites that provide an ideal setting for custom homes to fit every family’s needs.

Also currently available are Long Cove’s luxury waterside cottages, which offer seven floor plans, ranging from three bedrooms and 2,000 square feet to six bedrooms and 3,600 square feet, all with expansive covered porches and scenic lake views.

The completion of amenities at Long Cove came just in time for the community’s grand opening event, which took place on Sunday, May 26 during Memorial Day weekend. The surrounding communities, neighbors and Dallas/Fort Worth residents flocked to the  open house event, which boasted live music, boat and fishing demonstrations, home tours and family fun around the pool and the Lake Club. One Long Cove Memorial Day guest summed it up best when she said, “I could see myself here!”
