About Hidden Creek
Hidden Creek is a rural residential area near Johnson City, the county seat of Blanco County in the Texas Hill Country. Johnson City sits at the junction of US Highways 281 and 290, approximately 50 miles west of Austin and 60 miles north of San Antonio. The 2020 U.S. Census recorded Johnson City's population at 1,627, and the surrounding Blanco County area maintains a low population density with ranches, acreage properties, and small subdivisions spread across the Hill Country terrain. The Preserve at Walnut Springs, a 2,000-acre ranch community nearby with only 66 homesteads on 5- to 7-acre lots, typifies the area's emphasis on land and open space over density. That community includes a clubhouse, equestrian center with stalls and a covered arena, pool, tennis courts, 22 miles of hike and ride trails, 6 ponds, 2 natural springs, and a spring-fed swimming hole across its 2,000 acres.
Johnson City Independent School District serves the area with a compact set of campuses. Lyndon B. Johnson Elementary School enrolls approximately 299 students and is the only elementary school in the district, meaning all elementary-age children in the area attend the same campus. Lyndon B. Johnson High School serves roughly 250 students in a 2A classification under the University Interscholastic League, the second-smallest division for Texas public school athletics. The district's small enrollment allows for low student-to-teacher ratios and a close-knit educational environment where staff know students individually. The schools are named for President Lyndon Baines Johnson, who grew up in Johnson City and whose boyhood home is preserved as part of the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park, located within the town.
The Texas Hill Country setting defines daily life near Hidden Creek. The Pedernales River runs through the area, and Pedernales Falls State Park encompasses 5,212 acres approximately 10 miles east of Johnson City. The park charges a $6 per person daily entry fee for ages 13 and older, with children 12 and under admitted free. Facilities include hiking trails through rugged Hill Country terrain, over 80 campsites for both RV and hike-in camping, mountain biking trails, horseback riding areas, fishing access, and the layered limestone formations that create the park's namesake cascading falls. The Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park operates two units: the Johnson City District, with a visitor center, LBJ's boyhood home, and his grandparents' log cabin settlement, and the LBJ Ranch District near Stonewall, with the Texas White House, the Johnson family cemetery, and a self-guided driving tour available free of charge. The adjacent state park includes the Sauer-Beckmann Living History Farm, which demonstrates Texas German farming life from the 1918 era with costumed interpreters.
