A Big Welcome to Our Neighbors

We have a new jewel in our crown here in Wears Valley!  Old Smokies Produce has moved in to the Big Red Barn on the property just in front of Cove Creek Resort.  Owner John Marzucco and his right hand man Jose have been working hard the past few weeks to get situated and ready for the season.  Fresh watermellon, Grainger County tomatoes, cucmbers, yellow and green squash, corn, and more!  Be sure to come by and visit John and meet the Valley's newest member.  Right beside Old Smokies is McGill and Sons Pony Rides with some super cute goats and miniature ponies.  Alvin McGill is a lifelong resident that has been offering pony rides here in the Valley for a few years now.  The kids can have fun while you get fresh produce for dinner! 

It has been great for the guests that come to Cove Creek.  We have had several guests enjoying a watermellon by the pool.
