"wonderful street to walk on"

Sleepy Hollow Court is a very short street in River Oaks that basically just loops around the Sleepy Hollow Park. This is a small park, but very beautiful with large trees, and a nice place to go and relax. If you live in River Oaks or Afton Oaks, Sleepy Hollow is a really nice street to take an evening stroll on and enjoy the park.

"Short street in River Oaks"

Mockingbird Lane is a short street in the upscale, desirable River Oaks neighborhood. It leads right up to Sleepy Hollow Park, and is also very close to River Oaks Country Club and the Memorial Park golf course. The street has many mature shade trees and larger, mostly brick or stone homes, with well kept lawns. This is a great, quiet, upscale area to live in.

"nice quiet street in desirable area"

Olympia Drive is another beautiful street in River Oaks. The homes are quite large but tasteful, and it is a friendly but quiet neighborhood. This is a great place to live as it is actually very close to downtown, an easy commute compared to living in the suburbs where you may have a long commute. Shopping and major roads such as I 610 are nearby.

"great place to live"

Del Monte Drive is in the exclusive River Oaks and Afton Oaks area. This neighborhood is conveniently located to the River Oaks Country Club and golf course, and is generally a great place to live. The street is nice to walk or bike on as it is very quiet, but nearby on Westheimer and West Gray are many nice restaurants and upscale retailers such as Whole Foods.

"Nice, desirable neighborhood"

Inwood Drive is a long street that runs all the way through the desirable Afton Oaks and River Oaks neighborhoods. This is one of the major streets in this residential area, but is still very quiet and conducive to walking. There is not really any through traffic in this area, only other residents, which keeps the traffic to a minimum. This is an expensive area, but a great place to live if you can afford it.

"Gorgeous street in River Oaks"

Inverness Drive is another beautiful street in the River Oaks area of Houston. The streets are tree lined, with many older, stately brick homes. This is a very quiet and upscale neighborhood, with a small town feel but the amenities of being close to the city, with many great restaurants and shopping nearby within a 5 minute drive.

"nice quiet residential area"

Knollwood Street is a short street in the River Oaks neighborhood of Houston. This is a very desirable area in which to live, with many larger homes and a peaceful, upscale feel to the area. This neighborhood is convenient to major thoroughfares, shopping, and retail areas nearby, but maintains a quiet and isolated aura.

Lazy Lane Blvd is a short street in the exclusive River Oaks area of Houston. There are many large, beautiful homes on this street. There is a very cute park right in the middle of Lazy Lane, Homewood Park. This street is very quiet and peaceful, nice to walk on with little traffic, and close to the country club.

"Beautiful street, convenient."

River Oaks Street is in a gorgeous, safe, upscale neighborhood. The River Oaks country club is nearby. This is a great neighborhood to live in, very exclusive and quiet. The peaceful, quiet feeling is deceptive, it feels removed from the noise of Houston but is actually quite close to downtown and the 610 loop.

"beautiful, exclusive neighborhood"

I used to live on Chevy Chase drive. It is a beautiful, upscale neighborhood. The streets are tree-lined, most of the homes are brick and very well maintained. Although this is a more upscale, exclusive area, the neighbors are all very friendly and not snobbish at all. This neighborhood is convenient to the country club and conducive to walking. It is very quiet and peaceful, but close to many great nearby shops and dining on Westheimer Rd.
