Welcome To Burnet County
Welcome to the official vacation destination website for the Highland Lakes located in Burnet County, Texas! Situated in the stunning, rolling hills of the famous Texas Hill Country, the Highland Lakes area is enriched by abundant natural beauty and charming Texas hospitality. We’re blessed to have five of the gorgeous Highland Lakes within our county’s borders — Lake Buchanan, Inks Lake, Lake LBJ, Lake Marble Falls, and Lake Travis — where you’ll have plenty of room for swimming, fishing, boating, water sports, and relaxing. You’ll also find breathtaking vistas and gorgeous sunsets.
The delightful and historic Texas towns of Bertram, Burnet, Granite Shoals, Marble Falls, Kingsland, and Spicewood provide guests with fabulous dining and lodging options situated near natural treasures. Among the Texas Hill Country gems are Longhorn Caverns, a series of impressive and historic caves carved out of the earth by an underground river, and gorgeous state and local parks and nature preserves. Endangered species such as bald eagles, black-capped vireo, and golden-cheeked warblers thrive along the lakeshores and in the hills. You’ll also find picturesque meadows of bluebonnets, Indian paintbrushes, and other vibrant wildflowers from spring throughout the summer. Whatever your vacation goals may be, you’ll meet them in the Texas Highland Lakes — all year-round.
RELAX. You’re finally here.
