WATERFRONT LIVING
Discover where to live on Lake Hickory NC
You'll truly appreciate the very constant lake level, water clarity and moderate boating traffic. Unlike most other lakes in the Southeast, Lake Hickory has a sandy bottom as opposed to clay. Home styles and sizes vary a great deal; from small fishing cabins to big custom built homes. Dock styles vary, too; from small piers to large "double deckers".
A variety of fish can be found in the lake; striper, largemouth, crappie and blue gill to name a few.
Watch the Hickory Crawdads firework displays throughout the summer from your boat on the way home from the lakeside restaurant!
