We're scouting places to live in NC and would like to look at lakeside and riverside communities. Are there any waterside communities around Raleigh/Durham?

Thank you.

Not like in those areas above Charlotte, no.

Most of the waterways in the Triangle area are now being legally protected from development for environmental quality reasons. (And rightfully so.) Some older developments that were built before this may still be out there, but there's usually a park buffer around the actual lake surface.

You'll find random subdivisions where they've taken an old farm pond and made it the "community lake" or whatever. But I wouldn't call that a lakeside community in the same sense as stuff you find down by Lake Norman by no means.
