Lake Conroe
Lake Conroe is a 22,000-acre boating lake located about an hour's drive from Houston. It's a popular place to get away from the city for rest and relaxation, or an exciting adventure. Jet Skis, sailboats, and fishing rigs may all be found on Lake Conroe on any given day. The shoreline is also dotted with visitor attractions such as golf courses, lakeside restaurants, and full-service marinas.
The nearby city of Conroe is worth a weekend visit on its own. Conroe is developing a vibrant scene that includes live music, restaurants, and easy access to the outdoors.
