Antiquing

Old Town Spring is a great spot to go for shopping and for dinner. It closes early on weeknights but is busy on Saturdays. It is popular for antiquing, other cute stores, and some fun restaurants - Elm and Magnolia is my favorite but I also enjoy Wunsche Bros. If you like BBQ, go to Corkskrew and enjoy some of the best.

Food

If you want a spot with some craft beers and good food, this is a small but fun spot in Tomball. It is only a 15 minute drive away and Tomball is fun to walk around and explore. It has that small town feel if if you go there twice they will recognize you and probably remember your name... See if they have any live music on at Main Street Crossing or the Empty Glass Wine Bar

Do like like Asian food? This is right in your neighborhood and is surprisingly good. Ramen bowls, Poke Bowls, or Chicken Teriyaki. It is next to a Subway, MOD Pizza, McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Popeye's. It is handy to have these so close to home within a 2 minute drive. At the other end the neighborhood are even more restaurants. You won't go hungry !

Want some Texas BBQ? There are many great spots to choose from but this is my favorite. It has great BBQ and awesome sides in the best part of Tomball. Yes, they even have chocolates for dessert. Corkscrew in Old Town Spring is also good.

This is nearby Mexican food that is different from the Tex Mex food that you can find everywhere. It is more of a traditional Mexican restaurant with fabulous food and award winning margaritas. Of course, there are piles of other options in the same strip mall. Bellagreen, which is next door, is also fabulous. Both Ambriza and Bellagreen are 'nice' places for adults. Ambriza has a nicer atmosphere for a 'date night' kind of place but is also popular with families.

Houston and Spring have great ethnic foods and Thai is a favorite for many including my family. This is nearby and good but not licensed. Aloy Aloy is another nearby favorite if you're coming from the north. If you want Thai food with a nicer atmosphere head to Charm, which is also great but a touch further away.

Don't let the rustic feel of this place fool you. The food is fantastic and they will have live music in the Spring on Friday nights. This is great for a date night and is one of the first spots I took my current girlfriend. It works! (smile). Old Town Spring also has some charm and is good for walking around in. it is popular for shopping and its restaurants. In Old Town Spring Wunsche Bros is good for music and food. Corkscrew is the best BBQ, and there are several other choices but Elm and Magnolia is my favorite. Chef Joe is cooking while his wife, Maria, is there to talk to you at the bar most nights.

We love the food here and we love the live music that they have on Wednesday and Sunday evenings. There are three of these restaurants but this is the one that we go to the most. A favorite for me and my son but also good for adult groups or a date night.

This is a Louisiana based sports bar chain. It is a sports bar but it is also clean and the food is surprisingly good with a little Cajun flare to it. Go figure you could get sports, clean, and good food all in one place, right? This is also an area where there are a ton of other restaurants. (Uncle Julio's-Mexican, La Madeleine-French, Willie's-Texas, Five Guys Burgers, Jason's Deli, Freddy's steak burgers-fast food, Chili's, and so on and so forth.

Wine Bars

Up for a date night at a wine bar? This place has as fabulous wines and great food in Vintage Park where there are a number of other restaurants to consider too. Cellar 24 in the Woodlands is another great wine bar that isn't a dinner spot if you want another option for just wine.

A great wine bar. Good for snacks but not a dinner spot. Perry's, an upscale steakhouse, is in the same strip mall if you want to a fancy dinner before a good glass of wine. Shelly, the owner, will help you pick the perfect wine. Careful, you may end up buying a bottle and bringing one home. Yes, they are that good.

Water Sports - Kayak Rentals on the Lake

Want to get out on some water on a hot day? Riva Row is about 20 minutes away on Lake Woodlands. You can rent kayaks, water bikes, or stand up paddle boards here. If you want the same experience in a more nature centric setting, drive a little further up to North Lake Conroe Paddling Company where you can rent kayaks and go out on the calm part of Lake Conroe. It is beautiful!

Walking

Want a great place to go walking? This is a beautiful trail that provides some shade and nature to enjoy. It is nearby and is a favorite for me and friends. There are a ton of walking trails within a 1 hour radius of Houston but this is my closest and favorite. Gleannloch Farms is good for walking in the neighborhood but this is where I go to for a change and for nature.

Have a dog to walk and want a leash free zone? Well, if your dog is friendly and gets on with other dogs we've got a great spot for you and it's called, "Bark Park"

Athletics and Keeping Active

Athletes? We have a sports complex with a pool, beach volleyball court, baseball diamonds, sports fields, kid's playground, and walking-jogging trails, and pickle ball. This is all at one location. Within the neighborhood, we also have 6 tennis courts, two elementary schools where kids play basketball or do lacrosse 'wall ball', two other pools, and canoes available for a nominal fee. There is also a full gym and the neighborhood itself is great for walking in. You're probably going to enjoy some of the fabulous restaurants nearby but there are lots of ways to stay active while traveling. This is one of the main reasons I moved to this neighborhood.

This has a park / playground for small kids, 6 tennis courts, a large pool and a mini-pool for younger kids. Beat the heat with some time in the water. You can take a canoe out but this will require a visit to the neighborhood HOA office and putting down a deposit.
