Nestled in the beautiful landscape of Texas Hill Country, Lake Travis is a winding waterway that is a dammed section of the Colorado and Pedernales Rivers. This lake is part of the popular Highland Lakes chain and is located downriver of Lake Marble Falls and upriver of Lake Austin. The combination of rolling green hills and tranquil, waterfront views that are second to none sets Lake Travis up as one of the most attractive areas in south Texas to call home. Meanwhile, the peaceful retreat of Lake Travis rests only 15 miles from the bustling city of Austin, giving homeowners access to the excitement of big city life without sacrificing the quiet comforts of living in a small-town community. If you're looking for the best of both worlds, Lake Travis may be the perfect destination for your family.

More About Lake Travis Real EstateMost Popular Areas for Lake Travis Real EstateLakeway Living on Lake TravisLake Travis is a boaters paradise thanks to its 57.6 miles of boatable waterways and deep water (max depth of 190 feet). The deep water is perfect for cabin cruisers, houseboats, and wakeboard/wakesurfing boats (the deeper the water the bigger the boat's wake is). 10.1 miles of these boatable waterways are on the Pedernales River which is one of the best places to wakeboard in the entire country thanks to its natural shorelines and winding curves that pretty much guarantees a straightway that will be blocked by the wind. This lake is not a constant level lake however the depth still allows most of the lake to be boatable in some of the worst droughts. Lake Travis does allow floating boat houses unlike other non-constant level lakes that don't, such as Canyon Lake. Most of these boat houses are made to entertain with patios, slides, bars, and more. If you are looking for a lake house on a constant level lake allowing waterfront improvements with a similar size and feel to that of Lake Travis, I highly recommend considering buying a home on Lake LBJ. Prices on homes for sale on Lake Travis vary widely, often listed for between $400,000 to several million. Also take a look at Lake Travis Condos For Sale which can start below $200,000. The average price for homes in the area is just over $2,300,000 however there are plenty of options below this price point.

Entertainment and RecreationOne of the most exciting attractions in the area is Lake Travis Zipline Adventures. Offering visitors the longest and fastest zipline in the entire state, this is the place to go to get a bird's eye view of the serene waterways and rich vegetation that define this region. After zipping above the rich Texas landscape, cool off with a visit to Waterloo Adventures, a popular attraction featuring a massive inflatable obstacle course set on the lake, providing hours of fun for the kids. Adults can enjoy a beer or margarita while lounging along the shore or rent a floating picnic table for a family meal out on the water.
