While yes, it might seem a little biased for us to say that Denver, North Carolina is one of the best places to live, we truly believe it — and so do all of our residents. But what makes Denver so great? Is it the people? Is it Lake Norman? Is it the local culture? Or is it the dining and shopping experiences that are available within thirty minutes of your doorstep?  It’s a stretch, but it could even be the awesome apartments for rent in Denver, NC like ours!

In an effort to not sound too biased, today's blog is not going to be about our wonderful apartment community. Instead, we will be discussing some of the best things that Denver, North Carolina has to offer.

Lake Norman

We couldn't write a blog about how great Denver is without bringing up Lake Norman. In fact, Lake Norman is what brings most people to Denver — whether they are moving here, or just visiting for the weekend. Lake Norman is the largest man-made body of freshwater in North Carolina, boasting 520 miles of shoreline and around 50 square miles of surface area. Because of Lake Norman’s sheer size,  people flock north from Charlotte on weekends to explore the expansive lake while catching a couple rays.

Additionally, Lake Norman plays host to an extremely large amount of recreational activities ranging from chartered cruises to sailing to boating and fishing. Don’t have a boat? No worries, because you can rent boats from various local retailers and enjoy a day on the lake. While Lake Norman is a wonderful asset to our community, we see it as an extreme asset to you to have an apartment so close to Lake Norman. Come to visit us at the Riverwalk Apartment Homes today to see just how close to the lake you could live!

Shopping & Dining Opportunities

There are two types of people in this world, those that like to shop, and those that are too “proud” to admit they love shopping. The only thing that people don’t like about shopping is spending the greater part of a day in your car hopping from store to store. Luckily, in Denver, NC, you don't have to. Located just 14 miles from your apartment in Denver, NC lies a wonderful shopping center that can cater to all of your needs or desires — the Birkdale Village shopping center. Featuring all of your favorite stores and brands, the Birkdale Village can turn a day of tedious shopping into an enjoyable experience. But what if you work up an appetite?

If you are an experienced shopper, there is no doubt that you know how grueling it can be. Walking around all day, carrying a number of bags or items that you just saved 30-70 percent off on, shopping can really make you work up an appetite. Luckily, the Birkdale Village also features a number of delicious restaurants that are perfectly capable of satisfying your appetite. Visit the Birkdale Village shopping center today to see what we are talking about!

Denver, NC Is The Perfect Place To Relax

While all of the activities and other things that you can do in Denver make for a pretty compelling case, it is the things that you don't have to do that makes an even better argument. By that, we mean that Denver, NC is a great place to relax.

Denver offers relaxation in three distinct ways — awesome camping opportunities, spa treatments, and stellar apartments to nap in.  We will admit, that last one was a quick plug for our apartments for rent in Denver, NC — but let’s get back to it. With Lake Norman being in our backyard, Denver has the unique opportunity to offer camping relatively close to an urban area. If camping isn’t quite your jam, don’t fret, as there are plenty of other relaxation opportunities in the area. So come to visit us, schedule a spa appointment, and sit back an relax!
