Just watched this Lake Norman video of a $22 million dollar mansion on an island - Dave

Lake Norman - Long Weekend Getaway - October 2024 (End)

Last day, took a walk along the street and saw some lovely houses and plenty of water views - more docks with boats, pontoons, and other water activities equipment - even a house under construction - now many of those were modest to moderate in size and likely modestly priced, but there are many multi-million dollar properties (we saw a few years ago on a boat tour of the lake which no longer is in business - a definite miss for us); but a couple of ending pics of two very expensive properties!

For eats, nothing fancy - a couple of times at the Toucan's Lakefront Restaurant and a few dinners at Big Daddy's Restaurant - started out with oysters each time and stayed with seafood. Dave

The perfect fall getaway!

The perfect fall getaway!

Nice to be near the water if only for a short visit, but fortunately close to home. We would like to come back to Lake Norman but probably would look for a different locale - missed not having the large commercial tour boat (closed indefinitely?), and the smaller pontoon rentals were all booked (will need to schedule in advance next time).
