April 15, 2022

Are you thinking of building a new home in Rowlett TX? If so, you may be wondering what it’s like to live in this growing lakeside community.

Rowlett is a northeastern suburb of Dallas. Although it has seen rapid growth in recent years, the area maintains a rural small town feel. The overall vibe is relaxed and family-oriented.

Residents who crave big-city excitement can easily find it less than half an hour away in Dallas. The President George Bush Turnpike makes it convenient to commute there for work or higher education, or to attend sports and cultural events.

One of the main attractions in Rowlett is the immense Lake Ray Hubbard. Covering 22,000 acres, the lake has 30 miles of shoreline. The lake provides almost endless opportunities for fishing, boating, waterskiing and other water sports. Numerous parks around the lake provide areas for swimming, hiking, picnicking and just enjoying the outdoors.

Rowlett also has 15 city parks. Between them, the parks have many miles of hiking trails as well as picnic areas, basketball courts, soccer fields, sand volleyball, playgrounds and more.
