Lake Norman residents already enjoy two top-notch county parks in the Cornelius real estate market - the 105-acre Jetton Park with lake access, tennis, bike rentals, walking trails, picnic shelters, playground and a beach; and Ramsey Creek Park, a 43-acre waterfront park with two large picnic shelters, a playground, volleyball courts, picnic facilities, fishing and boat slips. The brand new, 18-acre town-owned and operated Torrence Chapel Park features ball fields, tennis courts, jogging trails, basketball and picnic shelters.

The natural beauty of Cornelius can be found throughout Town. Cornelius has been here for hundreds of years and its history is reflected in its homes, neighborhoods, shopping and business areas. Residents here enjoy boating on the beautiful waters of Lake Norman, shopping in the area's many shopping centers, and worshipping at the numerous churches the community offers.
