The Cove Creek Club is a unique property surrounded by water on three sides. 

There are two peninsulas bordered by the Eastern Bay to the east and south, Tanner’s Creek to the west, and bisected by Cove Creek. 

In the early 70's developers Milton and Barbara Kettler purchased a 340-acre farm on Kent Island as a hunting and fishing destination for their friends and business associates. 

Those who experienced the beauty of this farm encouraged the Kettlers to develop it as The Cove Creek Club.

The community was carefully planned to preserve and enhance the natural beauty and activities provided by its unique coastal setting.

The developers sought to achieve an overall sense of visual harmony between the built environment and the natural environment.

The surroundings of The Cove Creek Club personify openness, harmony with nature, the water, the marsh, the wildlife, the changing moods of the seasons, the sky-- all a change of pace from the urbanization of the western shore.

When the Kettlers began construction in January 1979, Milton Kettler enthusiastically said, “Putting together the best place in the world to live is a lot of fun!” 

Members are undeniably having fun in “the best place in the world” enjoying golf, tennis, bocce, bridge, poker, yacht club, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, biking, walking, holiday parties, crab feasts and many other get-togethers.  

 This sense of community is the essence of The Cove Creek Club.
