Featured outdoor activities at Holiday Island start with the community’s 53,000-acre Table Rock Lake. Freshwater fishing, canoeing, and kayaking are among the most popular activities, along with water-skiing, wakeboarding, and scuba diving for the more adventurous. The full-service Holiday Island Marina offers boat rentals for visitors and boat slips for residents.

The Recreation Center features two swimming pools, tennis and pickleball courts, and other family-friendly activities. There’s also an expanding network of hiking and biking trails that traverse the forested highlands, as well as a year-round calendar of social activities and special events.

The Park shopping center is located at the entrance to Holiday Island. It features a supermarket, a pharmacy, a hardware store, and a U.S. Post Office, plus restaurants, banks, medical services, and other convenient businesses.

Single-family homes and buildable homesites in the Holiday Island residential community feature lake, golf course, and woodland views. Arkansas taxes are among the nation’s lowest; residents enjoy full access to all resort amenities. The Holiday Island community is governed by a Board of Commissioners elected by the property owners.

Burnsville, NC

Nestled in the heart of North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains and surrounded by thousands of acres of hardwood forest, The Cove at Celo Mountain is an emerging community in a historically beautiful setting.

The Cove at Celo Mountain has been designed for residents who want to leave the hustle and bustle of city life behind. Whether you want to build a cozy retirement cabin or a larger home as a primary residence or family vacation retreat, The Cove at Celo Mountain offers a quiet privacy that’s interrupted only by birdsong in the trees.

A total of 17 exclusive homesites will be available in The Cove at Celo Mountain. The first five sites to be offered range from just under one acre to nearly two acres in size. The gated entranceway, paved roads, and underground utility lines are in place, but nearly everything else has been left undisturbed.

In addition to hiking trails alongside flowing streams and gushing waterfalls, the community amenities reflect its natural ambiance. The Hidden Water Lodge and Pavilion is a rustic gathering place for neighbors, while the Lookout Pavilion offers sweeping views of valleys and mountaintops. There are also stocked trout-fishing ponds and a play area with a two-story treehouse for the kids.

Located just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, near welcoming highland towns, and only 45 minutes north of Asheville, The Cove at Celo Mountain is a private sanctuary unlike any other.
