Find yourself enjoying the breathtaking views of graceful rolling hills and a beauty that can only be described as "Texas Hill Country." As one of the Lake Travis area's newest destination communities, Rocky Creek offers award-winning home designs and resort-style living in natural surroundings that give home owners a casual and playful access to what Texas Hill Country living is all about trees, views and a tranquil natural environment.

Set in a beautiful expansive setting of rolling hills, spectacular views and more than 300 acres of natural habitat, for a fortunate 400 homeowners, Rocky Creek will be the place to call home in Austin's most popular growing area of Lake Travis and Bee Cave. Homeowners have a variety of spacious home sites from which to choose, many of which are heavily wooded, oversized, on cul-de-sac streets or have views. Home sites range in size from 70-, 80- or 110-foot lots as well as estate lots. To complement a beautiful home site, spectacularly designed homes are available from two of Austin's most sought-after builders, Highland Homes and Drees Custom Homes. Home prices start from the $300,000s, a spectacular feature in and of itself.

Rocky Creek is the perfect place to raise a family, touting a spectacular array of available amenities including a community swimming pool, hike and bike trails and play areas for the children. Rocky Creek has more than 5,000 linear feet of Rocky Creek frontage, with a vast array of wet ponds and limestone outcroppings very similar to those found just upstream at Hamilton Pool. The 10-foot-wide primitive hike and bike trails meander through the neighborhood, and a beautiful neighborhood pool, playground and park allow families to just relax.

Schools for Rocky Creek include Bee Cave Elementary, Lake Travis Middle School and Lake Travis High schools.

The Lake Travis area includes many new shopping destinations like Hill Country Galleria, the Shops at the Galleria and Lake Austin Spa Resort. Rocky Creek is minutes from great restaurants, the new Backyard for music and all of the Lake Travis water attractions and entertainment.

Visit Rocky Creek this weekend to see the beautiful Drees and Highland Homes model homes. New homes are now available, and the best views and home site locations are still available. For more information, visit rockycreekliving.com.
