Reviews of Cove Creek Falls
"Had an amazing time! We bought a canyoneering and white water rafting package from French Broad Adventures and it was soooo worth it! Canyoneering guides, Marz and Anya, were awesome!! (Rafting guide, John, was awesome too!!) Highly recommend FBA!!"
"Medium difficulty 4.5 mile loop. If you can, make sure to take the off shoot to cove creek falls. I would say that it is high difficulty but only for about 100 yards down, but then you have to come back up to get back on the loop. The waterfall is definitely worth it though!"
"I had a wonderful time hiking Cove Creek Falls in Brevard, NC today! The trail was easy and the waterfall at the end was absolutely beautiful. It's a bit of a drive into the woods to get there, and the GPS can be a bit finicky, but once you find the trailhead there is parking available. One thing to note is that there are no signs, so be sure to have a map or directions handy. Overall, I highly recommend this hike for anyone looking for a scenic and accessible adventure in the Brevard area!"
"Beautiful waterfall. I did the full loop all the way to the top down. The trail system is quite expansive and easy to take a wrong turn. The easiest way to get straight there is to go through both campgrounds and enter the trail near the bathroom. The hike probably would have been under 2 miles if I went that way but I got turned around and went the long way instead. Quite the workout that way with elevation gain."
"The smaller falls you come to are fantastic! Cove Creek Falls itself was just ok and disappointing.....you cannot get close at all to get a decent photo due to the foliage being very thick, lots of trees. The good is....the hike is soooo worth it!! The trail is marked very well, super easy to follow, thick beautiful foliage, lots of photo opportunities, loads and loads of beautiful ferns, bridges to cross the wide sections of the creek, (good workout too). About 2 miles after passing the campground there is a great spot to sit by the creek awhile and just relax. We will definitely be going back just for the beautiful hike! Please remember waterfalls are dangerous!!!"
