Famous Toastery
Begin your vacation with a day of relaxation. Start with breakfast at one of the coziest restaurants in Davidson, Famous Toastery. Pick up something light or get a full breakfast with fried eggs, bacon, blueberry pancakes and hash browns. And don’t forget to request the highly recommended corn beef hash. This popular breakfast spot is only a short drive from your first destination.
Savvy Salon and Day Spa
Head to Savvy Salon and Day Spa and spend the day indulging in the ultimate spa experience for your mind, body and soul. You can get your hair done, get a manicure and pedicure, enjoy a facial or body treatment, or a massage. After a day at this relaxing escape, you’ll be sure to leave feeling rejuvenated.
Davidson Landing
Next, visit Davidson Landing to experience food and wine with lake views and a little retail all in one place. Visit Lake Norman Cottage to taste new wines and enjoy live music. While you’re here, browse through the apparel, accessories and unique gifts throughout the store. Take a stroll along the lakefront and stop in The Cabin for happy hour cocktails before dinner. Indulge your taste buds for lunch or dinner with a relaxing waterfront culinary experience at North Harbor Club.
Birkdale Village
Then visit Birkdale Village and enjoy an outdoor shopping experience. This beautiful location has stores lining the streets, as well as bubbling fountains and colorful gardens in the center of the village. Here you’ll find apparel, accessories, jewelry, home furnishings and cosmetics.
Corkscrew Wine Pub
With a great combination of shopping and dining, there’s no shortage of restaurants perfect for lunch or dinner. Locals recommend Corkscrew Wine Pub, eeZ Fusion & Sushi, Red Rocks Café or Dressler’s Restaurant for a larger group. For a special treat, Dressler’s has an amazing low country crab dip appetizer and a variety of sweets such as cheesecake, espresso chocolate cake and carrot cake to share (or not) for dessert.
Summit Coffee’s Outpost
For your final day, spend your time enjoying the water and scenery on Lake Norman. First, stop for breakfast at Summit Coffee’s Outpost location. Not only will you fall in love with this family-owned café’s locally roasted specialty coffee, but breakfast will fulfill cravings with items such as the almond butter and jam toast or scones drizzled with chocolate icing.
Ride LKN
You’ll feel ready to burn some energy during a watersports lesson at Ride LKN — but if relaxing is more your speed, rent a private charter instead.
Fresh Chef Kitchen
Afterward, grab a quick bite, like the herb shrimp salad from Fresh Chef Kitchen. Then head to one of the area's many marinas, where you can rent a boat to cruise around Lake Norman for the rest of the afternoon.
