Choosing to relocate to the championship NC golf community, Belmont Lake Preserve, was a choice to experience “Lifestyle Redefined.” Rocky Mount Area Entertainment puts you in close proximity to many options in seeing the area’s professional sports teams, which would include for the hockey fan under your roof, an NHL franchise that awaits under an hour away, with the 2006 Stanley Cup Champion, Carolina Hurricanes.
The fastest and most physical of the sports teams in Rocky Mount Area Entertainment, the Hurricanes play their home games in the heart of North Carolina’s capital city, Raleigh, at the PNC Arena. All the excitement and the top stars of the NHL sit under 70 miles from your front door at Belmont Lake Preserve. The Hurricanes’ franchise has become the driving force in the rise in popularity of ice hockey in North Carolina since relocating to Greensboro from Hartford, Connecticut prior to the 1997-98 season. Just two years later the team moved up the road to Raleigh into the PNC Arena (then called the RBC Center) where they have built one of the league’s most loyal fan followings over the course of their 15-plus seasons in the city.
In only the team’s third season after the move to Raleigh, they reached the pinnacle of all professional hockey, winning the 2001-02 NHL Eastern Conference Championship and earning the franchise’s first ever birth in the Stanley Cup Finals. Despite dropping that best-of-seven series to the Detroit Red Wings, the Hurricanes would remain an NHL powerhouse over the course of the next several seasons, returning to hockey’s “promised land” and battling their way back to the cup finals again just four years later at the end of the 2004-05 season. This time, Carolina would refuse to be denied however, as they won a thrilling seven game series to bring the prestigious Stanley Cup home to Raleigh as world champions.
