Marble Falls

Elevation : 764
Population : 5,656

Marble Falls is 47 miles northwest of Austin in the middle of the Highland Lakes. Named for a spot on the Colorado River where waterfalls poured over marble outcroppings, the picturesque community has always been one of Texas’ most popular Hill Country destinations. Horseshoe Bay is only minutes away with what will soon be four world-class golf courses. That, combined with the fact that Blue Lake might be the most beautiful 9-hole course in Texas, makes this area pure golf paradise.

Marble Falls Golf Courses :

• Blue Lake Golf Club
• The Country Club At Meadowlakes

Notes
The traditional eating establishment here is the Bluebonnet Cafe (830-693-2344), just north of the bridge on US 281. The recommended side trip is the scenic route down 1431, where you can take your lunch to the picnic area just north of town and stare at Granite Mountain, a massive dome of pink and red granite where the stone for the Texas Capitol was quarried. This road offers spectacular scenery in every direction as it winds and curves through the hills. Another scenic drive is down 2147 along the western shore of Lake Marble Falls
