Real Estate in Lake Conroe Texas

I enjoy providing a way for Realtor friends who are willing to write about their cities to appear on my blogs, and this is one of those times. This guest blog is from Jarrod Frenzel, an agent in the Houston, Woodlands, and Lake Conroe, Texas area. I hope you enjoy his thoughts...

Lake Conroe, Texas

Lake Conroe is considered by many to be one of the best lakes in Texas.  The sheer size of it and the excellent water quality creates tons of recreational opportunities.  Lake Conroe is sometimes referred to as Houston's playground.

Lake Conroe is located approximatley 40 miles north of Houston, just past The Woodlands Texas. It is situated in Montgomery County and spills into the three cities of Conroe, Willis, and Montgomery.  This is a man-made lake completed in 1973, extending about 21 miles in length and encompassing a total of 20,118 acres.  The lake draws thousands of visitors per year from the Greater Houston area, and all the way north from Madisonville Texas.

There are many things to do on the lake throughout the year.  Lake Conroe draws all different types of boaters ranging from fishing boats to yachts.  Water skiing is a very popular activity enjoyed during the summer months, with a handful of marinas that rent ski boats and jet skiis by the hour.  There is no better place to be than on Lake Conroe during those hot Texas summer days!

The Lake Conroe real estate market has remained very strong over the recent years.  While other markets around the country have dropped off, home sales around Lake Conroe have remained stable with some appreciation in most price-points.  There are many planned golf course communities around the lake that offer a country club lifestyle.  This is considered one of the state's wealthiest areas, featuring higher than average income and eduacation levels amongst the residents here.

If you've never had a chance to visit here, you should plan a trip this summer.  For more information about the Lake Conroe area, you can call Jarrod Frenzel at 281-658-7389, or visit his website at www.searchthelake.com.
