Lake Norman is North Carolina’s largest artificial freshwater lake. With shorelines running 520 mi (837 km), you can expect fun ventures including fishing, boating, and waterfront dining. Three towns, Cornelius, Davidson, and Huntersville, run along this scenic lake, offering varied attractions. Jetton Park and Ramsay Creek Park in Cornelius are ideal for fun family outings, while Davidson is a college town you can easily explore on foot. If you’re traveling in this area between October and November, you wouldn’t want to miss Huntersville’s Carolina Renaissance Festival where you’ll feel as though you traveled back to the medieval ages.
