Miller Creek Ranch

Yesterday, snow fell all over central Texas, turning wooded creeks and ranches into beautiful winter vistas. Rare but not unheard of through this area, the last significant snowfall was on Valentine’s Day in 2004. Yesterday, the hill country got two inches, with Austin getting closer to one inch and parts of Williamson county, north of Austin, receiving three inches.  

Miller Creek

The Miller Creek Ranch is a luxurious 4,950 square foot custom home on 68 acres of hill country in Johnson City. Already a stunning property featuring 800 feet of both sides of dammed Miller Creek, winter snow reveals a whole new side of this beautiful ranch. You could imagine relaxing in the six person spa overlooking the creek, soaking in the large jacuzzi tub looking out the window, or by one of the stone fireplaces watching the snow fall.  You can’t help but enjoy the views that this ranch has to offer.

Created in 1951 by the Max Starcke Dam, Lake Marble falls is the youngest and the smallest of the Highland Lakes. But it is not without its own share of charm. Beautiful views accompany boating and water recreation. The lake is stocked with native fish and a great spot for fishing, boasting some Texas state record catches.

Double Horn Ranch

Every year in August, for three days the 611 acre lake is home to Lakefest, a quarter mile liquid racetrack for drag boats. Fans enjoy the festivities on shore and the exciting show in the water.

The whole Marble Falls area has some of the most beautiful land and houses to call home, in all of Texas. The Double Horn Ranch is 305 acres of unparalleled waterfront land on the Double Horn Creek for an amazing price. One look at the pictures and you see why this area has its great reputation.
