  • tval98
    "Good parks, good schools, great walkAbility, good churches and good restaurants. Safe and well maintained homes. Safe to cycle"
  • John Dove
    "Small town: 12 mins or less to get just about anywhere. Trying to buy a house here. The town does seem to be expanding."
  • Oscar Rodriguez
    "Only 30 minutes to most amenities in Austin. Very close and easy access to the airport. My wife and I go to Austin Friday and stick around in Bastrop on the weekend. "
  • Belinda.mangum

  • Kathleen A.

  • Richard M.
    "Small town atmosphere with a classic old town district. Close enough to Austin for easy access to big city items, but with big supermarket and department chains available within city limits. The Lost Pines ecology and Colorado River make it a unique place to live."
  • Mabvn
    "The neighborhood is beautiful and very safe. The deer roam freely and u often see roadrunners crossing the road. There are no rentals allowed where I live and the HOA keeps a tight rein so the yards are beautiful. Honestly , it’s paradise until the water bill comes during the summer or when the HOA fee is deducted from your checking account every month. On the other hand, the homes hold their value, the homeowners are kept informed of anything happening in the neighborhood and the gym, pool and amenities center are always clean and in good shape. "
  • Mabvn
    "There is a 2 dog per household limit in my subdivision. I believe you are also allowed two Cats. I have yet to hear someone being fined for having too many animals and ignoring HOA guidelines, but it could definitely happen. "
  • Jbalusek23

    "I work out of town going further out into the country so traffic is not an issue for me just yet. But I would like the bridge by my house repaired to give me another exit out of the community "
  • Alexis M.
