The combination of beautiful settings, great recreational advantages and easy access to Charlotte via Interstate 77 make the Lake Norman area a great place to live. Lake Norman is an inland sea that covers 32,475 acres and has 520 miles of shoreline—the largest manmade body of fresh water in North Carolina. Duke Power created it when it dammed the Catawba River in 1963. The area includes parts of four counties—Mecklenburg and Iredell to the east and Catawba and Lincoln to the west. Duke Power partnered with the state in the establishment of the Lake Norman State Park. In addition, the power company has built two bank fishing areas and eight public boating access areas along the shoreline. Duke Power State Park, on the northern shore, offers a public swimming area, nature trails and boat ramps. The southern shores boast three county parks: Blythe Landing, Jetton Road Park and Ramsey Creek. |
