Lake Wylie West Real Estate > Lake Wylie West Community Info

When residents venture away from the lake's serenity, the culture and amenities of nearby Charlotte, Rock Hill and Clover are a short drive away. Clover was first settled by the Scotch Irish descendants. In celebration of its heritage, Clover residents host the annual Feis Chlobhair, or a Clover Kinntra Festival, during the second week of June. Bagpipes are played, haggis is eaten, cabers are tossed, and everyone has a good time. Rock Hill is a nearby community of parks, greenways, open space and recreational opportunities. A well-kept, landscaped city, Rock Hill celebrates their sense of community through expanding their festivals and other public events. Residents come together to support diverse areas of the arts, historic preservation and community history.

The shores of Lake Wylie lie in both North and South Carolina, just 20 miles south of Charlotte, NC. A variety of activities are available in nearby Charlotte including area sports of the NFL's Carolina Panthers, the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats and college NCAA athletics. One can catch NASCAR action at Lowe's Motor Speedway, AAA baseball, or a Charlotte Checkers hockey game.

Recreation options include hiking in nearby Crowders Mountain State Park or South Mountains State Park, or a day trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway in Western North Carolina. Those who enjoy a day on the lake have a wide selection of choices including Lake Wylie West, Lake Norman and Mountain Island Lake. The Carowinds amusement park, Verizon Wireless Amphitheater, the uptown Charlotte Arena and Cricket Arena offer great entertainment options for residents.

Whether it's the diverse cultural and recreational opportunities, the friendly people or beautiful lake community, Lake Wylie West provides an easygoing lifestyle close to the conveniences of the city.
