You are less than an hour from the downtown Houston Theatre District, one of the most highly regarded in America next to Broadway. 

And let’s not forget about the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion only minutes from your lake home.  Sit in an outdoor amphitheater and enjoy entertainment by James Taylor or the Houston Symphony as cool breezes whisper through a lush pine forest. This is paradise…culture and convenience perfectly blended with nature.
 

Hermann Memorial Hospital a new state-of-the-art facility is just minutes away and it is only an hour to the Texas Medical Center complex and the world renowned M. D. Andersen Cancer and Research Center.
 

Okay, so you want to leave the quiet tranquility and 'crank it up' a bit. In ten minutes you can be on pristine Lake Conroe -- a 21,000 acre lake with wide open waters -- to sail -- jet-ski -- water ski or fish for that trophy bass.
 

And don’t forget… the Gulf of Mexico and historic Galveston Island, is just down the road for the salt-water enthusiast and fisherman.  Imagine this… from your lakefront home in a lush forest to a tropical beach in just over an hour.  How is that for having it all!

For the avid traveler or businessman, the George Bush Intercontinental Airport is only 30 minutes away to whisk you to anywhere in the world.

If a sea cruise is your mode of relaxation, major cruise lines now embark from the Houston ship channel to Caribbean, Mexican and other faraway destinations.
 

And of course for the everyday family needs like groceries, dry cleaners, pharmacies, doctors or dentists and highly rated schools, everything is only minutes away.  How’s that for convenience?  No wonder… that’s just how we planned it…you’re at Ridge Lake Shores by The Woodlands
