Do you remember as a kid waking up early on Easter Sunday and searching all over the house for your Easter basket filled with chocolate rabbits, jelly beans and those weird marshmallow bunnies coated with pink sugar?

April 5th is Easter Sunday!

It’s a popular time to eat Cadbury Creme Eggs and Peeps Bunnies at 6:00am, put on your Sunday best, go to church and go out for Easter Brunch.

And for that reason, we put together our annual list of places to go for Easter Brunch. Most are here in the Lake Travis area, but a few are a bit further away — included because they’re well worth the drive.

From eggs and bacon and mimosas on a patio overlooking Lake Travis to the all-you-can-eat-buffet with brisket and live gospel music. Wherever you decide, make your reservation early, as this is one of the more popular days for families and visitors to enjoy Sunday brunch.

Flintrock, located eighteen miles northwest of Austin in Lakeway, is one of the newer neighborhoods in the Lake Travis area boasting gorgeous custom homes, top-rated schools, world-class golf and beautiful views of the Texas Hill Country. If you’re seeking an exclusive neighborhood where you can enjoy gorgeous sunsets, picturesque landscapes and convenience to everything you need, Flintrock might just be the place you want to call “home.”

The notoriously winding and steep Flint Rock Road leads you to the gated community of Flintrock Falls (on your right) and Bluffs at Flintrock (on your left) and then it winds through the Hill Country which lends itself to spectacular views of the homes and the hillside. The hustle and bustle of RR 620 quickly clears from your mind and you feel like you’ve been whisked away to a serene escape.
