“I have to say moving down to Mooresville is like vacation everyday. Being a part of Lake effects is the icing on the cake! Staff and facility are 10 stars if i could give it to them. Jackie and Emma are the friendliest most professional. The boat staff Zack, Jack and the rest of the crew are super attentive when you come in and out with the boat. I have been a member since April and have no regrets joining.”
“I can't recommend Gem Avenue highly enough. If you're looking for museum-quality crystals, minerals, gemstones, and unique specimens without paying premium prices, this is the place to go.
Haroon is incredibly knowledgeable, honest, and passionate about what he does. He takes the time to answer questions, explain the origin and characteristics of each specimen, and never pressures you into making a purchase. His professionalism and genuine desire to help you find the right piece make the experience enjoyable whether you're a first-time buyer or a serious collector.
The selection is outstanding—from beautiful display specimens and rare minerals to polished stones and jewelry. Every piece I've purchased has exceeded my expectations in both quality and value. It's obvious that Haroon carefully selects his inventory rather than simply buying in bulk.
The prices are extremely fair, especially considering the exceptional quality of the specimens. After visiting several crystal and mineral shops, I can honestly say Gem Avenue offers some of the best value I've found.
If you're searching for high-quality crystals and minerals, outstanding customer service, and honest pricing, do yourself a favor and visit Gem Avenue. I will definitely be a returning customer and highly recommend them to anyone, from beginners to experienced collectors.”
“One of my favorite places to shop. Unique gifts and clothing. If you are looking for nice Lake Norman t-shirts this is the spot. I bought two for our friends we were going to visit and are avid fishers.”
“Friendly and light hearted experience here. My mom and I happened to step in while an event was happening that day. The woman helping us was very warm. We got yummy free snacks and drinks! Super cute gifts/accessories here plus good service.”

“Such a cute shop. The young lady that helped us was just amazing. She gave great recommendations for food. The conversation was so pleasant. And we bought adorable gifts and souvenirs to take back to Colorado.”
“I had the privilege of booking Horton Cellars for an at home wine tasting, and I was thoroughly impressed! Everything from the service to the wine was excellent. I've been to several different wine tasting, and this experience is up there with the best of them. Danice and Cliff are very good, and what they do. They are very informative, personable, and genuine. I will definitely be using their services in the future.”
“So many amazing items! If you need a gift or beautiful flowers you should come here! Everyone is so nice and I was able to pick up a order right away! Perfect experience!”
“I was a walk in. The lady at the counter was very friendly and very knowledgeable about walk in options. They recommend calling ahead but was able to accommodate me. My wife loved the arrangement.”
“I ordered an Edible Arrangements gift to be delivered to a family member, and the entire experience was excellent. The delivery was on time, and my family member was thrilled with how beautiful the arrangement looked. They said the fruit was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. It was the perfect way to brighten their day. The ordering process was simple, and everything was handled professionally from start to finish. I highly recommend Edible Arrangements for anyone looking to send a thoughtful, high-quality gift. I will definitely order from them again!”
“Ive lived in Lake Norman for around 20 years now and I’ve been to the store more times than I can remember to get thoughtful gifts that you can’t find anywhere else. The women that work in this store are all wonderful. Thanks for the help again this year with Mother’s Day.”
