Lake Norman shines in summer. Kids are out of school and “summer hours” are in full effect. Everyone wants to be out enjoying the best of what lake life has to offer. Here are a few things we love about Lake Norman in the summer.
This is why you visit (or live) here! Taking advantage of the lake in summer is a must-do. And, there are so many activities to choose from! StayLakeNorman guests can rent a boat from Norman Boats. Or, if you prefer a chartered experience, we recommend the good folks at Carolina Cruising Charters or Carolina Tiki. Prefer speed and water sports? Ride Wake and Surf Co and South Shore Water Sports can hook you up. If you're more of the slow and steady type, try renting a kayak or stand-up paddleboard (SUP) from Sunside Rentals.
Our lake communities love a good party. Here are a few favorite annual and recurring events that bring people out in the summer.
