Lake Life Made Easy
There’s plenty to do at this community, but Homeowner Members also appreciate living down the road from Lake Norman, the largest lake in North Carolina. Thanks to the Freedom Boat Club that all community Members are automatically a part of, it’s easy to reserve a boat for a day—and simply return it when done.

Or, Members can check out a kayak or stand-up paddleboard from The Outfitter. The Outfitter provides bicycles and other outdoor gear too, so Members can get outside and take advantage of the natural surroundings. Bonus: The Outfitter serves coffee and snacks!
