Lakeway

Welcome to Lakeway

Resort-style living and lavish homes just west of Austin.

Bee Cave and Lakeway are two upscale communities located west of Austin known for their resort-style living, abundant amenities and recreation opportunities, and a peaceful country atmosphere. Bee Cave was first settled in 1870, but its population has grown from around 600 in the 1990s to about 7,000 today, which means most homes here are new construction. Lakeway’s development since the 1960s has been more gradual, and it consequently has a mix of recently built and older homes.

Real estate within these two communities includes lavish hilltop estates with spectacular views over the lake and its surroundings, along with a range of spacious single-family homes in a varied mix of architectural styles. Some of the most sought-after properties in Bee Cave are the beautiful modern masterpieces overlooking the golf course at Spanish Oaks Country Club. Lakeway offers a variety of grand waterfront property and elegant European- and Mediterranean-style villas.
