Living in Beautiful Lake Wylie, SC 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) Lake Wylie, SC is simply one of the best places to live, I have lived here for several years and love it. If you love living life on a beautiful lake, this is the place for you. Lake Wylie offers many waterfront homes on the shores of beautiful Lake Wylie. One of the most popular ...Read More places to go is Ebenezer Park. There you will find a beach, playground, boat dock and more. Area schools are well recognized, and offerings include both public, charter and private schools. We also love going to Carowinds, which is only a few minutes away!

There are plenty of jobs in this area. You are within 15-20 minutes away from the booming metropolis of Charlotte where there are many different jobs. You are also close to Rock Hill, SC where there are many job opportunities as well.

No matter what you want to do, you can find something do in and around Lake Wylie. There are plenty of people, fun things to do and real estate is bountiful. Read Less
