About Saratoga Hills

Saratoga Hills is a gated community of 155 homesites located just west of Dripping Springs, Texas, within the 78620 zip code in Hays County. The development sits off Trautwein Road, north of US Highway 290, roughly 25 miles west of downtown Austin. Builders include Ashton Woods, Vintage Estate Homes, and CalAtlantic (formerly Ryland Homes). Access to the community is via Smarty Jones Drive off Trautwein Road, and the gated entry leads to approximately five miles of internal streets, most ending in cul-de-sacs that limit through-traffic.

Lots in Saratoga Hills range from 1.5 to nearly 3 acres, making it one of the larger-lot communities in the Dripping Springs area. Home prices generally range from $600,000 to over $1.2 million, with square footage spanning 2,000 to 4,500 square feet. Most homes are single-story construction on Hill Country terrain, featuring stone and stucco exteriors, open floor plans, and outdoor living spaces sized for the oversized lots. The acreage format means the community does not include shared amenities such as a community pool or park, though individual lots accommodate private pools and outdoor improvements.

Living in Saratoga Hills

Saratoga Hills features single-story and two-story homes on 1.5- to 3-acre lots set along cul-de-sac streets within a gated entry. The terrain is rolling Hill Country landscape with native live oak, cedar, and grassland. Because lots are oversized, there are no shared community amenities, and individual homeowners maintain their own properties including fencing, landscaping, and any private pools or outbuildings. Property tax rates fall under Hays County and Dripping Springs ISD jurisdictions. The gated entry and cul-de-sac layout result in minimal through-traffic throughout the community.
