To the north of Houston lies an area of piney woods, lakes and rivers that's a favorite stress-busting getaway for those who enjoy golfing, boating, hiking, biking and birding. Shoppers also will find places to satisfy their cravings.
Several resorts are destinations themselves, offering an array of activities and dining in scenic settings. There's a variety of evening entertainment, including one of Houston's most popular outdoor concert venues.
Special note: In the greater Houston area, it's necessary to dial all 10 digits of the phone number.
Activities & Attractions
About 20 miles north of Houston, Old Town Spring, [telephone] 800-OLD-TOWN, recaptures the feeling of the turn of the century with its brick courtyards and old cottages that now house about 150 shops selling antiques, art, collectibles, gifts, clothing and all kinds of treasures. It's easy to spend a relaxed day browsing through this restored railroad village.
