Lake Travis Area Weekend Events: December 5 – 7

Written by Todd Hower | December 5, 2014

You’ll have a tough decision to make this weekend with everything that is happening in and around the Lake Travis area. You don’t want to miss the annual Lights On! celebration in Lakeway tonight but might want to head downtown for the Trail of Lights Preview Party.

Along with all the lights to check out, there are a couple of holiday sing-alongs, a Christmas Bazaar at the Iguana Grill, The Nutcracker presented by the TexARTS Youth Ballet Theatre and …

Snow is in the forecast!

Be outside of the Bee Cave Library at the Hill Country Galleria on Saturday at noon for a snow day — sure to be a big hit with the kids.

Gather up your holiday spirit and get out there to enjoy the weekend!

It’s the weekend before Thanksgiving and the tree lighting ceremonies are underway!

It all started last night with the 8th Annual Tree Lighting at the Hill Country Galleria. The festivities continue with more holiday lighting events taking place at The Domain and around the Hill Country in Johnson City, Marble Falls and New Braunfels.

Are you traveling for Thanksgiving this year? Prepare yourself — it’s going to take longer to get to that turkey and dressing. The experts who track travel for a living say that an improving economy, more disposable income, consumer optimism and low gas prices are combining to create the biggest Thanksgiving travel rush in years. Yikes!

Relax and enjoy your weekend before the craziness begins … or did it already?

And if you want to stay warm, there are a whole lot of indoor activities too.

Bundle up, get out there and enjoy the best days of the week!

Austin is one of the fastest growing cities in the country and it’s estimated that 115 people move to Austin each day.

It doesn’t matter where you come from or why you’ve decided to move to Texas, we all have something in common while we are here — we need water to survive.

Travis County is currently at a population of 1.4 million and the boom isn’t expected to slow anytime soon. It’s all happening at a time when the water level in Lake Travis is reaching an all time low.

Written by Todd Hower | November 5, 2014

Spanish Oaks is a modern-day Hill Country subdivision. With lots that encompass the private Spanish Oaks golf course, houses in this neighborhood are large and spacious but feel like they are tucked away in a Hill Country Resort.

The reality is that if you live here, you’re actually only twenty-five minutes from downtown Austin.

Resort amenities, championship golf, picturesque Hill Country views, easy access to downtown Austin — these are just a few reasons why families are calling the Spanish Oaks neighborhood their home.
