If you have never been to Lake Norman in NC, you are missing out. This beauty of a lake defines the whole region north of Charlotte, and it is impossible not to be affected by the lake in some way.
While I do not live on the lake waterfront, I am fortunate o live in a lakefront community that provides a marina for keeping my boat in the water. With a wife and three teen-agers that love the water, our boat and jet ski get a tremendous amount of use!
There are many aspects of Lake Norman that I will write bout in upcoming articles, but the "fun factor" that this lake provides is second to none.
Because Lake Norman is primarily a residential lake, there are numerous activities going on all the time. We personally have many friends who live on the water and have parties. If you have never had the chance to go to arties by boat (especially in the summer), you are missing out!
Lake Norman is large enough that you can get various conditions depending on what part of the lake you are on. Since the lake is 33 miles long, there are plenty of places to hide. Lake Norman has an abundance of coves, and while you will not get total seclusion, there are plenty of places to pull up, drop the anchor and sit a spell (as we say in the south!).
The week-ends are crowded on the lake, and sometimes we do not even bother going out on the week-end. If you can squeeze a few hours in during the week, the lake is typically very uncrowded. That's the best time to be on the lake.
My kids have grown up on the lake as we moved from tubing as little kids, to beginner skis, to slalom skis, to wakeboards. I have told my wife many times, that boating with the family is the best family time we have ever had. The quiet time away from phones and chores around the house, combined with the laughter of good times on the boat, has provided many great family memories that we will cherish forever.
Come on down to NC and visit Lake Norman. You will fall in love with the area.
