The Historic Whiteside Cove Schoolhouse was constructed circa 1918 after the previous log building burned. It was used as a one-room schoolhouse until the 1930s. 

 

In the mid-1930's 4 local families purchased the property from the Jackson County School Board and made the building a community center.  Since that time it has been used as a church and as a place for community events. 

​

It is currently used between Memorial Day and Labor Day (except the 4th Sunday in July) by the Summer Chapel for their services.

​

The Barak Norton Family Reunion has been held here since the 1920s when it relocated from the Norton Cemetery.
