​

Deep Cove Creations is the culmination of those three things. We focus on custom engraved gifts and one of a kind pieces of art. We take the time to get to know our clients and their style to create items that they are excited to give as gifts and make them want to come back to get one for their home as well. We specialize in one of a kind maps that showcase our clients love for the water. When I imagine the map in it's forever home, I can see the recipient proudly pointing to the map and showing their guests where they are on the water.
