  • Oscar Rodriguez

  • Kathleen A.

  • Mario A.
    "There is a fenced-in dog park just behind Whataburger. Most dog owners pick up after their dogs but there are a few who don’t. "
  • Mabvn

  • 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
    "Getting together with neighbors and having an eye out for each other. I always feel safe living here and being gone from home. "
  • Bortner15

  • Fucius H.
    "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.
    "walking downtown or driving around is the best way to do anything. not too much public transportation "
