HELLO TRAVELERS!

Here you will find all you need to know about the Lake Conroe area from an insider’s perspective to help you plan your perfect lake getaway.

I grew up on the shores of Lake Conroe in the small town of Willis, Texas. This area has grown up A LOT in the last several years and it has now become a great location for tourists looking to relax at the lake, explore some national parks, or just have a quiet weekend away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
