Things to do in Charlotte Year-Round (2021 Edition)

Things to do in Charlotte Year-Round

One of the things I loved about raising my children in Charlotte were the number of things to do with my kids, who love adventure. As my children have grown, I still do have clients with little ones who also seek adventure and Charlotte remains chock-full of incredible things to do…and not just adventuresome activities!

NASCAR Hall of Fame – As Charlotte is the center of NASCAR, we landed the Hall of Fame in 2010. After a few lean years (recovering from The Great Recession), this well-known Charlotte venue has become an ever-evolving shrine to Charlotte’s history – all under one roof in Uptown.

This high-tech venue, not only entertains but, educates with a multitude of artifacts, a state-of-the-art theatre, Honor Hall and hands-on-exhibits that are always fan favorites. *Kids LOVE the race simulator (additional charge but, worth it).
U.S. National Whitewater Center – Talk about thrill-seeking adventures in the great outdoors! Oh, there’s so much to do here – and not just water activities. Besides whitewater rafting, there are ziplines, mountain biking, yoga classes, trail running and hiking, flatware kayaking as well as SUP, rope climbing, adventure courses & jumps). It’s a wonderful place to visit any time of the year.
Discovery Place Science – Build a lifelong passion for learning at Discovery Place in Uptown Charlotte. Explore technology, science & nature with hands-on labs, their signature ‘Thinker Space,’ labs, an urban rain forest, aquariums, live animal exhibits, the iMAX theatre (the Carolinas’ largest iMAX Dome Theatre). *Also visit Discovery Place Nature, formerly known as Charlotte Nature Museum, a part of the Discovery Place network, located in Freedom Park.
Sea Life Charlotte-Concord – See creatures you’ve never seen before, watch thousands of tropical fish, sharks, sea turtles & more as they gracefully glide in North Carolina’s only underwater ocean tunnel. Discover a wide array of sea creatures up close in the aquariums and go behind the scenes to see how the thousands of majestic residents (sea creatures) are cared for. Located on the Concord Mills Mall campus.
The Great Wolf Lodge – Last but, not least, this fan favorite is one you won’t want to miss! Whether it’s a weekend visit, a weekend stay or a long vacation, there is SO much do to at one of the area’s top resorts. From thrill seekers to fitness lovers, magic intrigue, the water park, themed suites and family dining – the Great Wolf Lodge is a wonderful place for all ages!

Living in Creekshire Estates in Steele Creek

Creekshire Estates, a highly desirable neighborhood, in Charlotte’s popular Steele Creek community. The majority of the community was built by M/I Homes, an Energy Star Partner.

The HOA dues are quite reasonable and the neighbors, quite friendly. The convenient location makes Creekshire the kind of community that many Charlotte home buyers want to call home. The builder offered a 30-year transferable warranty as well, currently with approximately 20 years remaining on the warranties.

Residents enjoy a fabulous community pool and a very social neighborhood in one of Charlotte’s most popular areas.

For those reasons, Creekshire Estates homes tend to command top dollar, selling in a relatively short period of time – especially in our current, hot market.

Thinking of Selling Your Charlotte Home? Here’s a Checklist to Help You Prepare

I’ve written many times about preparation for Charlotte area home sellers. From the time I worked as a clinician during my nursing training, I was acutely aware that preparation is KEY in life. While my former career is long behind me, I am still a big believer in planning. As they say, ‘those who fail to plan, plan to fail!’

We’re not writing case studies to guide you through a life-threatening disease but, we ARE all about planning your move – a life-changing event.

Selling a home is something that requires extensive planning. I show homes all of the time that had obviously not been well planned out when it comes to selling. Most often, those homes don’t bring the highest sales price for their sellers.

Have a look at our checklist and then let’s talk! Let’s set an even more personal plan for your home’s sale.

Bottom Line

When it comes to selling your house, you want it to look its best inside and out.
It’s important to focus on tasks that make your home inviting, show that it’s cared for and boost your curb appeal for prospective buyers.
Let’s talk – and make sure your house shows well and catches a buyer’s eye. After all, the eye buys!
