A Day at Margaritaville Lake Resort

You don't have to travel far for a true resort day. Margaritaville Lake Resort sits right on Lake Conroe in Montgomery — 186 lakefront acres of "no worries" built around the Jimmy Buffett vibe, about an hour north of Houston and minutes from your site at Sunset Shores.

Eat, drink & unwind

The resort has dining for every mood: the LandShark Bar & Grill for waterfront deck views, License to Chill overlooking the lagoon waterpark, the Boathouse for elevated plates and live music, Joe Merchant's for Starbucks coffee and made-to-order pizza, and the Playin' A Round Café out by the golf course.

Play all day

Beyond the restaurants you'll find a three-acre waterpark with a lazy river and pools, an 18-hole golf course, live music concerts, watercraft rentals, fishing excursions and lake cruises, plus pickleball, tennis, and mini-golf.

Make it a road trip

While you're exploring the area, Bernhardt Winery, the Sam Houston National Forest, and (each fall) the Texas Renaissance Festival are all within easy reach — perfect add-ons to a day away from the park.

Make Lake Conroe your backyard

All of this is a short drive or boat ride from your site at Sunset Shores.
