Lake Conroe

"Life is brief and very fragile, do that which makes you happy�

Flavia Weedn

 

Like many things in life, Lake Conroe has become so much more than the original developers planned ever dreamed about. Located on the west fork of the San Jacinto River, it was built in 1973 as a joint project between the City of Houston (as an alternative source of water) and the San Jacinto River Authority (SJRA). One third of the shoreline of Lake Conroe is located in the Sam Houston National Forest.

 

With 22,000 acres of surface water spread into more than 157 miles of shoreline, Lake Conroe has become the destination for many people seeking a combination of lifestyles. Because it is located about one hour north of Downtown Houston, it is possible for people to enjoy this recreational lake frequently. Some opt to purchase a condo or small home for weekend excursions.

 

The rapidly growing population is people that choose the resort lifestyle for permanent, full-time living. Some of them commute to Houston.  Some of them tele-commute and work from home.  Some of them begin living in this affordable paradise as semi-retired or retired. ALL of them will sing the praises of the rare combination of recreation and graceful country living afforded by this locale.

 

 

 

Located only 32 miles from Bush Intercontinental Airport, this community includes more than 60 residential communities and over 20 golf courses in the area. To the south and east of Lake Conroe you will find an abundance of medical facilities, retail and restaurants. With three major hospitals within a 30 minute drive, you never have to worry about emergencies. The Woodlands Mall is a short drive away and with the growth of Conroe, you can find an abundant selection of dining options.
