The Lakes We Serve

Austin's most beautiful lakes are our playground

Lake Austin

Stretching 22 miles along the Colorado River, Lake Austin is known for its calm, narrow shape and protected shorelines surrounded by tree-covered hills. Because it's a constant-level lake, the conditions stay smooth year-round — ideal for wakeboarding, wakesurfing, and families learning new water sports. Located just minutes from downtown, it combines convenience with scenic beauty.

Lake Travis

Formed by Mansfield Dam in 1942, Lake Travis is the largest of the Highland Lakes and one of Texas' most popular boating destinations. With over 270 miles of shoreline, deep blue water, and wide open coves, it's perfect for advanced riders, large groups, and anyone looking for a full-day lake adventure. The stunning cliffs and sunsets make it a favorite for both locals and visitors.

Lake LBJ

Located west of Austin in the Highland Lakes chain, Lake LBJ (named after President Lyndon B. Johnson) is a constant-level reservoir with calm, glassy water that's perfect for wakeboarding and foiling. Its consistency makes it a favorite training spot for instructors and riders seeking the best possible wake. Surrounded by quiet Hill Country towns, it offers a relaxed, uncrowded experience.

Lake Marble Falls

Just downstream from Lake LBJ, Lake Marble Falls is a smaller, scenic reservoir known for its clear water and the limestone bluffs that line its shores. The lake runs through the heart of Marble Falls, creating a picturesque setting for both water sports and relaxing cruises. It's an ideal spot for smaller groups or those looking to escape the crowds while still enjoying great conditions.
