**About Hidden Cove**  
Hidden Cove is an area of approximately 65 acres adjacent to Sengekontacket Pond and bordering the towns of Oak Bluffs and Edgartown on the island of Martha’s Vineyard in the state of Massachusetts.

In 1980 a Master Declaration was recorded in the Town of Oak Bluffs stating the intent of Peter Van Rosbeck to create a community on the land of Hidden Cove. Today, nearly 70 owners occupy seasonal or year-round residences.

These owners are members of the Hidden Cove Property Owners Association (HCPOA), the legal entity responsible for operation of Hidden Cove. Approximately 15 residents are members of the Hillside Homes Condominium Trust, a condominium organization within the HCPOA.

**Hidden Cove Amenities**  
HCPOA members have access to common land that includes tennis and boat landing facilities, as well as ponds, meadows, and undeveloped areas.

Hidden Cove is governed under a Master Declaration, Bylaws, and Rules, all of which are subject to amendment through stated procedures and are subscribed to by resident owners. A Board of Trustees, elected annually by the membership, has fiduciary responsibility for the Association.

Hidden Cove prides itself on the variety and quality of its land and water views, and strives to maintain and enhance those views for the enjoyment of owners and preservation of the value of owners’ investments.

**Tournaments Near Golf Course Home Network Communities  
[BY WVH Editors](https://www.waterviewhome.net/)**

One of the perks of living at a to-flight golf course community is that they often host professional tournaments. The PGA Tour, LPGA Tour and minor tours all have events at or near Golf Course Home Network (GCHN) communities.

Residents often volunteer to work at the events, rubbing elbows with the world’s finest golfers and seeing them up close. Here are a few upcoming pro events that you don't want to miss!

If you live near River Highlands in Cromwell, CT, you just had the pleasure of watching the Travelers Championship take place at the Tournament Players Club (TPC) River Highlands this past week. The purse was set at $6,100,000, and the winner was Ken Duke, who won on a sun-death playoff.

The gated, residential golf community is located in Sherman, CT, in a section long known as a second-home haven for discerning urbanites and a past host of PGA TOUR events itself.

If you missed the first tournament near a GCHN community, there are several more tournaments coming up, beginning with the Mylan Classic. It’s not too early to plan a day trip or a couple of days at the following resorts and clubs!

**August 1-4 Mylan Classic

The Reserve at Lake Keowee has announced the release of 14 homes in its new Village Point neighborhood. Set along an area known as Marina Park, Village Point is just a stone’s throw from the community’s amenity filled waterfront Village.

Just as important, the release signals that [The Reserve](https://www.waterviewhome.net/communities/Community-TheReserveatLakeKeoweeSC.html) is “officially back in the development business,” says Chuck Pigg, community manager of the community and vice president of Greenwood Communities and Resorts (the community’s development partner).

“It feels great,” he continued,” to bring this new product to market after prudent dormancy during the real estate recession. Second, we are releasing our most compelling home packages to date. Never have we been able to sell property so close to the water at this price point.”

Community officials say the Village Point homes present a “trifecta of what second-home buyers are seeking: remarkable beauty and quality, flexible floor plans, and value.” [Send me more information about Village Point at The Reserve](https://www.waterviewhome.net/communities/CONTACT-TheReserveatLakeKeoweeSC.html)

**Value & Flexible Floor Plans**

Village Point features three home plans, ranging in size from approximately 2,650 to 3,750 square feet, each of which may be customized by adding terrace levels, garages, and upper levels.

Pricing for homes in Village Point begin in the mid-$600,000s, and the homes qualify for entry into the community’s residential rental program.

The neighborhood is located within five minutes or less by foot or golf cart from 10 of The Reserve’s most popular amenities. Inside the grounds, Village Point is a haven on the water, featuring pedestrian pathways accented by statuary and manicured landscaping.

**The Quintessential Lake Cottage**

“The architecture of the Village Point at The Reserve at Lake Keowee will be, in essence, the quintessential summer lake cottage,” says Lew Oliver, architect of the project.

“Found in lake districts and coastal villages of the Eastern Seaboard, the homes are free-form vernacular and shingle styled, with asymmetrical gables, ribbon windows, and rambling porches.

“Designed for capturing the summer breezes, the designs are open and casual. Interiors will be comfortable and non-pretentious, but with a nod to style.

The finish palette includes mountain rock, handmade brick, wood shingles and siding, with Arts and Crafts period colors.

Clustered on the most prominent peninsula in The Reserve, the village will be entirely pedestrian friendly, convenient to the Town Center, with boat slips, clubhouse and amenities only minutes away on foot.

“We already have a handful of reservations for specific homes and feel that the neighborhood is being very well received,” says Rutledge Livingston, The Reserve at Lake Keowee’s Director of Sales.

_Kiawah Island, SC: Waterfront homes pace recovery._

Recent traffic trends on the GolfCourseHome Network show that golf communities that also offer waterfront homes, waterfront property and waterfront real estate are enjoying a resurgence in sales.

Communities in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia have been active in touting their 2012 activity which has shown a healthy rebound in general along with excellent sales numbers versus 2011. See below on sales activity trends based on information supplied by the communities and their agents.

**\>** [Kiawah Island, SC](https://www.golfcoursehome.com/listings/87-kiawah-island-kiawah-island-south-carolina/) Kiawah Island Real Estate (KIRE) reports that that the company has closed on more than **$50 million** in sales in 2012—a 52% increase over 2011. More than  50 buyers took part.

In addition, 14 of 21 single-family homes that closed during this time period closed for $1 million or more. Increased sales means fewer homes for sale and as a result, interest in homesites has risen with 14 homesite sales in 2012–a 75 percent jump from the same time last year.

**\>** [St. James Plantation, Southport NC](https://www.golfcoursehome.com/listings/76-st-james-plantation-southport-north-carolina/) has recorded **50 closings** on homes and lots in 2012 for a total property value of $8,328,504. The sales represent a 92 percent increase in real estate sales versus the first quarter of 2011. All sales activity was independently verified through the MORE Report, a market analysis firm.

**\>** [Daniel Island, Charleston, SC](https://www.golfcoursehome.com/listings/86-daniel-island-charleston-south-carolina/) April was a busy month at Daniel Island Real Estate between the Family Circle Cup, great weather and eager buyers. Sales activity was strong  with **13 single-family homes** going under contract during the month. Since the beginning of the year, Daniel Island Real Estate participated in either the listing or the selling side on all seven sales on the island that were above $1 million.

The active 2012 follows an improving 2011 in which sales were up 20 percent over the previous year. Inventory of available properties also returned to healthy levels. Condominium sales were up 30 percent in 2011 with 26 new units sold.

**\>** [Hampton Lake, Bluffton SC](https://www.golfcoursehome.com/listings/84-hampton-lake-bluffton-south-carolina/) registered a strong 2011 in the face of the sluggish economy with 123 transactions overall, including **43 new housing starts**. Thirty homes are currently under construction, creating a pent-up demand for newly developed homesites.

In response the community “is releasing 19 estate-sized homesites, plus 36 ideally-located 80’ homesites,” says Pratt Reed, Hampton Lake’s sales manager.

The half-acre estate-sized lots are mostly lakeside with excellent water views and are the largest homesites ever offered at the community,” says Reed. They are priced from $159,000 and up depending on specific location and views.

The new 80’ homesites start at $66,000 and will be adjacent to the community’s Lakeside Amenity Village. Pratt noted that neither group of homesites will have a time requirement of when a buyer must build.

**\> [The Landings on Skidaway Island, GA](https://www.golfcoursehome.com/listings/47-the-landings-skidaway-island-georgia/),** which is marking its 40th anniversary this year, has a lot to celebrate. The Georgia waterfront community’s closed-real-estate transactions for the first four months of 2012 jumped 60 percent in dollar volume over the same period last year. According to Savannah Board of Realtors data, the community closed **67 home transactions** between Jan. 1 and April 30.

“The half-acre, estate-sized lots are mostly lakeside with excellent water views and are the largest homesites ever offered in our community.” They are being priced from $159,000 and up depending on specific location and views. The 80-foot homesites, start at $66,000 will be adjacent to the community’s Lakeside Amenity Village.

With a focus on the family, [The Reserve at Lake Keowee](http://www.golfcoursehome.net/doc/communities/Community-Lakekeowee.htm) has introduced its Legacy Membership, a robust expansion of benefits to the community’s Full and Premier Members.

The Reserve’s Legacy Membership now allows Members at the Greenville, SC, community to extend their membership privileges beyond their spouses and minor children to include their parents, adult children, and grandchildren. Existing members need only complete a Family Registration Form to activate their Legacy benefits. [Request more information.](http://www.golfcoursehome.net/doc/communities/CONTACT-Lakekeowee.htm)

**A Family-Oriented Community**  
“We have always been a very family-oriented community and have tried hard to cater to the desires of members and to carry out our promise and vision as a place to create family legacies,” explains Chuck Pigg, VP of Greenwood Communities and Resorts and Community Manager of The Reserve.

“Upon reflecting on our 10th Anniversary year, we recognized once again how important it is to our members to share The Reserve with their families.

"We felt that one of the best things we could do to enhance the membership value for existing and future members, as well as further strengthen our commitment to family, was to offer membership privileges to the parents, grandparents, children and grandchildren of the member.”

**Transitioning Vacation Home to Retirement Home**  
The legacy aspect of The Reserve’s new Legacy Membership answers a growing demand among Baby Boomers, as evidenced in the Kelsey & Norden’s study, to transition their vacation/second home into a retirement home. More than half of the Baby Boomer respondents indicated that they are “likely” to “very likely” to retire in their vacation/second home. [Request more information.](http://www.golfcoursehome.net/doc/communities/CONTACT-Lakekeowee.htm)

And though no one can deny the keen eye all buyers have toward the perception of value-for-price, Kelsey & Norden found that “the recession forced people to reevaluate their priorities and values. Many families concluded that spending quality time together away from their regular stressful, time-constrained lives is now more important than ever.”

Full-time residents Barry and Carol Hudson echoed those same sentiments:

“We decided to build at The Reserve because we believed this would be a place our kids and grandkids would want to visit and that has certainly been the case.  Keeping the family together is a priority for us, and The Reserve is the perfect place to do that. So, naturally, we were delighted to hear about the new Legacy Membership.

“Our son, Shannon and wife, Melissa, live in Greenville and are excited to know they will have full membership privileges making The Reserve amenities more easily accessible.  Our daughter, Barbara Ann, and husband, Kirk, visit several times a year even though they live in Oklahoma.”

The Hudson Family congregates at The Reserve every summer, over the Fourth of July.  They enjoy the Family Olympics at Turkey Ridge Park, watching the fireworks, golfing, and of course, doing all manner of activities in and around the lake and pool.  During fall visits, the whole family takes to the trails.

**Bringing Families Together**  
For part-time residents Doug and Sandy McKinney, too, the impetus for building a home at The Reserve has always been to bring their large family together:

“We have five children, four sons-in-law, a son who is recently engaged, and eight grandchildren,” Sandy McKinney explains.

“Our lakefront home at The Reserve can sleep 23 people, and we included a great beach with boats and jet skis, not only so that our kids would want to come visit, but also our grandkids. Our property is wonderful, but The Reserve and its amenities make it doubly wonderful.”

In the first weeks since announcing the new Legacy Membership, more than 160 parents, children, grandparents and grandchildren have enrolled in the new program. [Request more information.](http://www.golfcoursehome.net/doc/communities/CONTACT-Lakekeowee.htm)



Reynolds Plantation has announced an exciting new property release at Howell’s Grove. This limited release includes lakefront and lake access homesites, all ideal for walk-out terrace-level floorplans that maximize the striking scenery.

These large, beautifully-wooded homesites offer plenty of privacy, yet provide expansive views of the main lake. The limited common area shared by the three lake-access homesites includes a shaded, paved walking trail with wooden footbridges that winds its way to a 24-hour dock with four boat slips.  
  
The panoramic lake views, dramatic topography and beautiful natural surroundings make the new release at Howell’s Grove an inviting area that should be seen to be appreciated. For details and pricing information, or to arrange a tour of the new property release, please contact [Reynolds Plantation,](http://www.golfcoursehome.net/doc/communities/CONTACT-Reynolds.htm) or call 800-800-5250, or stop by one of the four Reynolds Plantation Realty offices.
