About Lakeside Living LKN

Connecting Local Businesses to
the Lake Norman Community

Lakeside Living LKN was founded to connect and celebrate our Lake Norman community—our towns, our people, our resources, and our local small businesses. Through our community-building platforms, we help local businesses grow by introducing them to the homeowners, families, and residents who make the Lake Norman area such a special place to live, and keeping them top of mind through our geo-targeted, integrated digital, social media, and direct-mail channels. We help them Get Seen. Get Found. Get Chosen.

Our Story

When I moved to Lake Norman from Ohio in 2013, I quickly realized something many newcomers experience—finding trusted local businesses, community resources, and things to do wasn’t always easy. Like so many families relocating to the area, I wanted one place that connected residents with the people, businesses, and experiences that make Lake Norman feel like home.

As a former educator, I naturally approached the challenge through education and community. I wanted to create more than a magazine

—I wanted to build a trusted local resource that helps residents discover their community while providing local businesses with affordable, effective marketing opportunities.

Today, Lakeside Living LKN continues that mission by celebrating the people, businesses, and neighborhoods that make Lake Norman unique. Every publication, digital campaign, and marketing strategy is designed to strengthen our community while helping local businesses thrive.
