About Us
The Coves at Bird Island on Grand Lake originally began as the site of a private hunting and game reserve. The property was acquired for the purpose of real estate development in 1981. The developers were committed to retaining the natural beauty of the area, and yet provide leisure, comfort, and privacy for the homeowners. Today the concept of a natural lake environment is blended with our amenities listed below. The Coves' unique 24-hour security is provided by EMS trained personnel who are just minutes away in an emergency.
