North Cove has joined forces with Another Round Disc Golf, a respected national disc golf brand and retailer, to help lead the recovery and revitalization efforts for the 157-acre property. As a local landmark and community hub, North Cove Leisure Club has long provided a gorgeous one of a kind experience for disc golfers of all skill levels.
