Central Texas Austin Communities - Travis County

Lake Travis anchors this entire region with weekend and permanent residents in the Lago Vista, Jonestown, and Lakeway communities, to name a few. Many locations offer gorgeous Lake Travis waterfront homes and weekend bungalows, waterfront parks, recreation centers, and more.

Golf courses include Twin Creeks, River Place Country Club, The University of Texas Club at Steiner Ranch, and several courses in Lakeway and Lago Vista. Mansfield Dam, which forms the base of Lake Travis, is operated by the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). Gated lakefront communities include Costa Bella, Hills of Lakeway, and Vineyard Bay. The Hill Country Galleria shopping center is here on Highway 71 along with The Backyard, a music performance arts venue.

Close-in subdivisions include Steiner Ranch, River Place, Jester Estates, Long Canyon, Westminster Glen, Glen Lake, Shepherd Mountain, Green Shores. The area is served by Lakeline Mall. Portions of the Balcones Canyon Land Preserve are here, saving much of Austin’s Hill Country for our enjoyment.
