Burroughs Park is a mecca for outdoor recreation
NorthGrove's amenity center, The Retreat, is the neighborhood's recreational hub — a top spot for friendly tennis matches or a dip in the pool. Proximity to the Spring Creek Nature Trail is another major draw to NorthGrove. The 14-mile trail is revered by outdoor enthusiasts for its picturesque views of the wooded landscape and diverse ecosystem, which attracts a wide variety of birds. Burroughs Park is also just a 3-mile drive south of the neighborhood, serving as a premier destination for fishing and intramural sports leagues. And every Saturday, the Tomball Farmers Market 5 miles south on Old Town Tomball's Main Street draws residents from across town for fresh fruits and veggies from local vendors.

NorthGrove is a quick drive to The Woodlands Mall
Kroger at Sterling Ridge Shopping Center and Trader Joe's at The Woodlands Crossing are the usual stops for grocery runs, though big-box stores can also be found a 12-mile drive east of NorthGrove at The Woodlands Mall, which contains over 1 million square feet of retail space. According to local Realtor Natasha Tessier of eXp Realty, proximity to The Woodlands is one of the big draws to the area. The nearby shopping centers all contain national chain restaurants, but locally owned eateries are the real favorites. The rustic Mel's Country Cafe on Stanolind Road is a staple for homestyle Southern cooking, while Via Emilia offers Italian fare to the sounds of smooth piano melodies.
NorthGrove residents get all their grocery shopping done at the nearby Kroger.
