A welcome respite from the buzzing city center of Charlotte

Convenient • Family-Friendly • Commuter • Wooded •

Located about eight miles northwest of Uptown Charlotte, rentals in Harwood Lane allow residents to escape city traffic and congestion while retaining easy access to big-city amenities. Bordered on the west by the Catawba River and Mountain Island Lake to the north, this heavily wooded area provides ample opportunities for kayaking, boating, fishing, and wildlife observation.

This neighborhood has tons of activities, and they’re right down the street from many apartments and rental townhouses. Spend at day at the U.S. National Whitewater Center paddle boarding or rafting down the rapids. Be sure to check out nearby Mt. Holly, a charming town with a popular farmers market and a downtown area that features many exciting eateries.

The general atmosphere living on the lake is great however we are experiencing extreme loud airplane noise now. With the opening of the new run way it has made it impossible to sit outside and not here a plane above. Very disturbing!!!!

Not enough variety of restaurants for families. Fast food chains are way to abundant.

We have some local restarants that have been here for awhile and also a gardening shop, We also have a little breakfast place that all locals migrate to that has local owners. A little farther from our area we have a outdoor shop who sells fresh produce and homemade pies.
