It’s an exciting time to live in the Lake Travis area, because new businesses — like Hill Country Cakery, FOUND Boutique, Vicecreme, Gateway to Falconhead, and Summermoon Coffee — are popping up everywhere.

Next on the list is a new beer garden …

It’s called Hops & Thyme and it’s promising delicious suds with a smile, a shady outdoor oasis, and tasty eats.

We’ve also got details about the new location for Beansprout Pediatric in Dripping Springs and an update on Bee Cave City Council’s decision to postpone The Backyard development. Again. Oy!

Let’s dive in, shall we?

Lake Travis at a Glance: Hill Country Indoor Promises Awesomeness, FOUND Boutique Opens & the Iron Cactus Replacement

Written by Cathy Hale | July 20, 2017

It’s hard to believe Lake Travis area kiddos will be heading back to school in less than four weeks. We won’t call it a “lazy summer” though based on the traffic on FM 620 — lots of big trucks means lots of construction is happening in and around the area.

The Lake Travis boom is bringing exciting new businesses to our community like Hill Country Indoor, which is set to open in September.

We’ve got the details on this amazing indoor sports facility and it’s so cool, we’re going to use millennial slang to describe it. Let’s just say it’s “goat” — that should mean “greatest of all time” — and we can only use that slang once in a while or it’s meaningless, so hopefully we’re supes legit now. (Idk.)

Another new business that opened in the Oaks at Lakeway is FOUND boutique. We’re going to take a peek inside.

Plus, everyone is asking us about what’s going to happen at the former Iron Cactus space. Well, we’ve got good news and juicy rumors to explore.

Written by Cathy Hale | June 28, 2017

Have you noticed how happy everyone’s been in the Lake Travis area lately?

We think it’s because the clouds, cooler temps and summer showers are keeping Lake Travis residents from losing their minds … AKA roasting in the sun. Sure, the humidity sucks, but look on the bright side — it’s not 101 degrees!

There’s a lot of news buzzing about the ground breaking ceremony that took place this past weekend at The Backyard. Ever wonder what a “creative business campus” is? Did you know the phrase “techno-luxury” is a thing? Evidently it is.

And speaking of luxury, have you been to Gumbo’s on the Lake yet? If not, you’re missing out on a chic spot to satisfy your Cajun cravings complete with an amazing view of Lake Travis as pictured above.

Let’s take a look at what’s what in the LT area, shall we?
