As the cooler weather approaches it’s a great time to get the family together and enjoy some activities the Lake Norman area has to offer.

Included on my list are some great fall festivals, seasonal activities and others are open all year long.

1.  Renaissance Festival- This is a favorite. So much entertainment for one price. If you have never attended make time to, you will absolutely enjoy a leap back in time. Great food and fun for all the whole family.

2.  Scarowinds- Carowinds Amusement Park transforms into a Halloween Haunt. This is great for adults and older children. I personally can’t bring myself to go but my 14 year old son loves it.

3.  Lazy 5 Ranch-Drive through safari or take a horse drawn hay ride. Purchase food and hand feed many different kinds of animals. Great fun for younger kids.
