This waterfront lake house was built for family and friends to enjoy time together on the Lake. The views are breathtaking from most rooms in the house and the two person swing by the boathouse ensures water fun all year long. The disco ball and twinkling lights by the boat house adds some fun to the nights as well! We have even added a fire pit and some outdoor Adirondack chairs so you can enjoy the sunsets even more. A brand new black matte metal roof during rainstorms is magical.
Conroe is just the right blend of starry nights & city lights. This house provides a family-friendly, fun & activity-filled vacation or a romantic & relaxing getaway. Our guests have access to all the April Sound Country Club amenities for an additional fee--please note this is a change in their policy and we had no control over that.

The water is about 4-6 feet deep beside the bulkhead depending on the water level of the lake. They lower the water level during Hurricane Season as a precaution. You can use the wooden staircase that leads into the water by the boat house and swim if you desire at your own risk and we HIGHLY ENCOURAGE swimmers to use certified flotation devices.
