Dining and Shopping on Lake Travis
Lake Travis has you covered here too. The best restaurants in the area are right by the water. The Oasis is a great local spot that serves up great food and amazing cliff-side views.

Once they've grown up (probably quicker than you will have hoped), world-class higher education awaits just miles away. The University of Texas, a nationally recognized state college is home to over 50 thousand undergrad and graduate students that enjoy the sun and fun of the Texas Hill Country.
