Community Type: Active Adult Community offering resort living

Description:

Houston Springs features a tranquil setting that allows its residents to feel far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city.  Imagine living in a quaint town with little or no crime, where one can have the benefit of a four-season climate, scenic rolling hills, and an abundance of quiet enjoyment.

Although the development will contain approximately 1,300 homes upon completion, they are set into small villages with a variety of housing styles, thus allowing small neighborhoods full of familiar faces.  Housing styles include single family, villa, patio, and courtyard homes.  Planned and existing features include walking trails, swimming, tennis, bocce ball, pickle ball, horseshoes, and more.  The planned Town Square will be an entertainment zone featuring shopping and restaurants, with a large square for dances and other outdoor events.

What really sets Houston springs apart from other similar developments is its focus on the "community family."  Village clubhouses are the venue for parties, pot lucks, barbeques and club meetings.  New clubs are springing up all the time as residents discover their common interests.  All new residents have to do is attend activities at the clubhouse or golf shop to quickly find new friends.  As our residents tell us, "We wanted to play with kids our own age!"

The community's future master plan includes an entertainment zone that will include a variety of cafes, unique shops, bank, bowling alley, medical offices, assistive, assisted living facilities, amphitheater, and an outdoor square with regularly planned entertainment.  As a golf cart planned community, all of these amenities will be readily accessible via golf cart.
