Heron Harbor homeowners definitely have the best of both worlds – lakeside living in Cornelius and proximity to I-77, shopping, dining and Davidson College.

Located off Torrence Chapel Road, Heron Harbor is takes advantage of beautiful views of Lake Norman, and residents can be on the water in minutes from a community boat slip, private dock or neighborhood boat ramp. 

Heron Harbor is a mere 20 miles from metro Charlotte and only 5-6 miles from downtown Davidson, Davidson College and Huntersville’s Birkdale Village for dinner, shopping or catching a movie. The Lake Norman YMCA is located just 3 miles from Heron Harbor.
