Recreation
Hampton Cove hosts one of ten stops on the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. Hampton Cove's 630-acre (2.5 km2), three-course, 54-hole facility is open year-round and includes a club house with a pro shop, meeting rooms, bar, and full-service restaurant.
Hampton Cove is also home to 28 stocked lakes, miles of walking and biking trails and horse riding paths, and a 100-acre (0.40 km2) city park with baseball and soccer fields. The adjacent Flint River, Hays Nature Preserve and Big Cove Greenway offer additional recreational opportunities. Roller Coasters Skate Center is nearby on US Highway 431.

Famous quotes containing the word recreation:
“Media mystifications should not obfuscate a simple, perceivable fact; Black teenage girls do not create poverty by having babies. Quite the contrary, they have babies at such a young age precisely because they are poor—because they do not have the opportunity to acquire an education, because meaningful, well-paying jobs and creative forms of recreation are not accessible to them ... because safe, effective forms of contraception are not available to them.”
—Angela Davis (b. 1944)
“Playing snooker gives you firm hands and helps to build up character. It is the ideal recreation for dedicated nuns.”
—Archbishop Luigi Barito (b. 1922)
