Cummings Cove is already well known for being one of the most distinguished North Carolina Mountain Golf Communities in the entire Western NC mountain region. Recently it received more notoriety from the publication Where to Retire magazine when it was featured in the magazine’s May/June 2010 issue. The story, by writer Jim Kerr, is on Hendersonville North Carolina, a splendid mountain paradise that offers the best of small town America with all the extra pleasures of a luxury community. Kerr examines Hendersonville and specifically its retirement potential, and gets the details on what exactly makes this small but historic town with its rich heritage a truly special place to enjoy retirement. For the latest story, Kerr interviewed Cummings Cove residents Tom and Barbara Brinkman, who described their retirement to the mountains and what made them fall in love with the area. Four seasons and a great golf course were two of the requirements for these two, and it seems Cummings Cove, one of the best gated North Carolina Mountain Golf Communities, was the golf community that made the cut.
