Getting together with neighbors is one of the many pleasures at Cummings Cove. Decks with a view of the golf course, peaks or a soothing koi pond – such as this one in the Wexford neighborhood – are made for easy entertaining.

Cummings Cove: Hendersonville, NC

Cradled by the Blue Ridge Mountains, Cummings Cove Golf & Country Club is a private, gated community with more than 650 acres offering a wide range of homes and homesites.
Hard to hear, in the typed word, John Gorka's joke as he picked up this G-sharp guitar: "OK, I'm gonna play a little guitar for you know." (As in "talk a little smack" or "tell you a little story" . . . OK, you had to be there.)

Walking to John Gorka

From our house via the Roanoke River Greenway and Franklin Road to downtown Roanoke and back. About 6 miles.
