Balcones Springs provides the best of both worlds: an idyllic setting at a convenient location.

We're not in the city, where nights on the town or home office interruptions can easily distract meeting participants. Nor is it a thousand miles away, where increased travel time and expense make the cost of seclusion prohibitive. Rather, Balcones Springs is convenient: only 35 miles from Austin and 90 miles from San Antonio.

Balcones Springs is located on FM 1431- a designated "Texas Hill Country Trail" -13 miles west of Lago Vista and 13 miles east of Marble Falls.
