LIFE IN HUNTERSVILLE
Huntersville is one of three towns located north of Charlotte, NC, but within the same county. These three towns make up the area known as "North Meck." Express bus transportation and an interstate with HOV lanes provide quick access to the downtown business areas of Charlotte, making Huntersville primarily a town of commuters.
The town also is known recreationally as a lake community because of its proximity to Lake Norman, a large man-made lake created by Duke Energy to serve the region's electrical requirements. The lake attracts boaters and water skiers from several surrounding states. Huntersville is also home to one private golf course, Northstone Country Club (PB Dye design), one Semi-Private club, Skybrook Golf Club, and one Daily Fee course, Birkdale Golf Club (Arnold Palmer design).
