Lake LBJ sits in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, a rare constant-level lake wrapped in limestone hills, live oaks, and clear blue-green water. Just over an hour from Austin and about two hours from San Antonio, it is a true getaway without the long drive.
Four reasons this stretch of the Highland Lakes stands out.
Unlike most Highland Lakes, Lake LBJ stays full year-round, so boats stay in the water and the fun does not pause for the seasons.
Some of the most striking water in the Hill Country, as good for a sunset swim as it is for a photo.
Rolling limestone hills, live oaks, and granite outcroppings frame an easy, laid-back waterfront.
About an hour from Austin and two from San Antonio, a real escape without the long haul.
