In this episode of The Best of LKN Podcast, Jeff returns to one of his favorite places on Lake Norman — the Safe Harbor Peninsula Yacht Club in Cornelius. Joining him are General Manager Kathy Dishner, Assistant GM Nikole Maust, and Marina Manager Harry Smith to share what’s new at the club.

They introduce the exciting new Boat Club, a member-only amenity giving social members access to the lake without owning a boat. Harry details the fleet — six brand-new boats, including pontoons, a Nautique surf boat, and a sporty Key West center console — plus training to keep members confident on the water.

Kathy and Nicole discuss fall favorites like wind-down cruises, wine and cheese outings, and a full lineup of holiday events, from the Santa Brunch to the elegant White Gala. 

They also highlight the popular Kids Camp, led by longtime staffer Katherine Armitage, and the club’s eco-friendly initiatives, including aluminum bottles and recycled dining ware at the Outrigger Pool Bar & Grill.

Whether boating, dining, or relaxing by the water, Safe Harbor Peninsula Yacht Club continues to be a home away from home for its members — and this episode captures that spirit perfectly.

🎧 Tune in to hear how this Lake Norman landmark keeps raising the bar for community, recreation, and lake life.
