GENERAL NEWS & INFORMATION/PARAGON PROPERTY GROUP TEAM
Ah, the lazy days of summer......And, the Central Texas Hill Country is a great place to spend them!
Summer fun is here and there is no better place than on our Highland Lakes. The 7 lakes in the chain span from Lake Buchanan down to Lady Bird Johnson Lake with Inks Lake, Lake LBJ, Lake Marble Falls, Lake Travis and Lake Austin in between. If you enjoy boating, jet skiing, fishing, swimming, wakeboarding, waterskiing or just lazing in a hammock and enjoying the breeze with a tall, cool glass of iced tea, there is a lot to love about our area.
Each lake has it's own character and beauty and it's fun to visit them all. Or visit some of the nearby attractions that each lake has to offer. On Lake Travis, check out the Oasis for a sunset cocktail, a lunch date or stroll through the shops. Lake Austin has the hike and bike trail, a super way to spend an morning or an evening. People watching is part of the fun!
