Several years ago when we began looking for a place to retire our first priority was warmer winters as we are from Minnesota; our second priority was to live near a metropolitan city and an international airport. In Minnesota we lived on Lake Minnetonka, a large inland lake near Minneapolis. We never considered replicating that life style which is so unique until we discovered Great Lake Norman; also a huge inland lake near Charlotte. Needless to say, we were so excited and we are still as enthusiastic about the lake life style. Warmer winters, large lake with resort style living, right sized city and an airport… a dream area. Even more good news - in January, we are looking at the sparkling waters of Great Lake Norman, not the solid ice and snow of Lake Minnetonka. What makes Lake Norman “Great”?
All the recreational activities such as boating, tubing, water skiing, sailing, yacht clubs. There are local parks on the water filled with picnic areas, walking/biking paths and tennis courts. There are Dragon Boat Races and bass tournaments… you can golf on a lakeside country club course. There is resort type residential living all around the lake which includes picturesque sunrises and sunsets over Lake Norman. Just step out your door and you are on vacation near a thriving city full of culture, restaurants, business opportunities and major league sports. This is called “LIFE STYLE”! And Lake Norman is a “great lake”!
