Lake Travis luxury, Hill Country charm, and resort-style living — Lakeway and Bee Cave offer Austin's premier lakeside communities with top schools, championship golf, and homes from $500K to $10M+.
Twenty minutes west of downtown Austin, the twin communities of Lakeway and Bee Cave have quietly become one of the most desirable luxury destinations in Central Texas. Built around the stunning shores of Lake Travis and set against a backdrop of rolling Hill Country terrain, this area offers a lifestyle that most cities simply can't match — resort-style amenities, championship golf, waterfront living, and some of the best schools in the state.
Whether you're looking for a lakefront estate with a private boat dock, a modern hilltop home with panoramic views, or a family-friendly neighborhood with trails and pools, Lakeway and Bee Cave deliver options at every price point from $500K to well over $10M.
Lake Travis is a 64-mile long, 18,929-acre reservoir on the Colorado River — and it's the crown jewel of this area. Residents enjoy:

Living here means Sunday mornings on the boat watching the sunrise over Lake Travis. It means Saturday afternoons at Jester King Brewery with friends. It means your kids growing up swimming in Hamilton Pool, playing Lake Travis High School football, and riding bikes through Rough Hollow trails. It means coming home to a view that makes you stop and breathe.
It's Austin living with the volume turned down just enough — close enough to downtown when you want it, far enough away when you don't.
From lakefront estates to family-friendly master-planned communities, I know every street, every view, and every deal in this market. Whether you're buying your first home or building your dream estate, let me show you what lake life is really about.
