The 3,000-acre Woodforest community is the newest offering from The Johnson Development Corporation, known for successful master-planned communities throughout the Houston area. Planned to include an impressive array of amenities and retail development, Woodforest surrounds the Woodforest Golf Club, one of the Houston area's top-ranked daily fee golf courses. Woodforest Golf Club offers special rates to Highland Homeowners. Enhanced by the same scenic, forested surrounds that characterize the historic Montgomery County area, Woodforest is showcased by rolling terrain, towering trees and pristine golf course views.
Location, Location, Location! Woodforest is just five miles north of The Woodlands, six miles south of Conroe and seven miles from Interstate 45 via the Fish Creek Thoroughfare, the first new major north/south thoroughfare connecting Conroe in Montgomery County and Tomball in Harris County.
The new FM 2854 overpass connecting Fish Creek to McCaleb and Highway 105 opens this February putting Woodforest less than 5 miles from the 22,000-acre Lake Conroe. The Lake Conroe area hosts an abundance of restaurants, boating and recreational opportunities. Residents will also enjoy convenient access to the great outdoors such as the Sam Houston National Forest and the Jones State Forest.
Among the recreational features in our neighborhood are the Monarch Park Playground, the Overland Park Hike and Bike Trail and the upcoming Lily Pad Spraypark opening in Spring 2011. Lily Pad Park will feature an interactive stream with gates, fountains, and boulders. There will be a covered pavilion, parent viewing boardwalk, picnic area and a frog pond with smaller spray elements for younger children.
Woodforest, nestled in nature, is in the center of it all. Not more than 15 minutes to major medical, retail and entertainment venues in Montgomery County including the Westwood Village Center on FM 1488, the Woodlands Mall, Market Street, Memorial Hermann and St. Lukes Hospitals.
Children in the Highland neighborhoods are served by highly rated Montgomery schools and have a wealth of educational opportunities close to home. Woodforest is one of the Houston area's most exciting new locations, providing residents with an appealing balance of location and lifestyle.
