Around the Cove

Annapolis Cove is known for its vibrant community spirit. The idyllic cul-de-sac streets are often filled with kids of all ages playing outside with neighbors. Spring and summer nights are spent at the Marina for happy hour—and sometimes even live music!

Community Events & Gatherings

The Hospitality Committee plans events for all ages throughout the year, so there's always something fun happening around the cove.

Annual Highlight

4th of July Float & Bike Parade

Annapolis Cove is known for its 4th of July Float & Bike Parade and Picnic, which takes place at the Marina and is a highlight of living in The Cove. Neighbors decorate bikes, wagons, and golf carts for a festive parade through the community, followed by a gathering with food, games, and plenty of red, white, and blue.

It's a wonderful way for families to celebrate together and for new residents to meet their neighbors.

Life Around the Cove

If not playing in the streets, you can find the kids selling lemonade, stopping by the free little library, feeding the turtles at the pond, or playing on the playground. This is a neighborhood where children grow up together and community happens naturally.
