About Highland Lake Estates
Highland Lake Estates is a residential neighborhood in Lago Vista, Travis County, perched in the hills above Lake Travis approximately 35 miles northwest of downtown Austin. The neighborhood is home to about 2,200 residents who are drawn by the combination of Hill Country scenery, lake access, and a quieter pace of life than the city offers.
The real estate market in Highland Lake Estates centers on single-family homes with lot sizes ranging from 0.2 to 0.6 acres, with some parcels exceeding 2 acres. The median home price is approximately $395,000, reflecting a slight 1% year-over-year increase. Homes here are generally more spacious and sit on larger lots than comparably priced properties closer to Austin.
The neighborhood is served by Lago Vista ISD, a B+ rated district operating three campuses: Lago Vista Elementary (PK-4), Lago Vista Middle School (5-8), and Lago Vista High School (9-12). The small district means class sizes are modest and community involvement in school events is high.

Lago Vista's amenities include nine POA-owned waterfront parks, a golf course, community fitness center, pool, and a private airport for small aircraft.
Living in Highland Lake Estates
Living in Highland Lake Estates means Hill Country quiet with Lake Travis access. The median age of 52 reflects the neighborhood's appeal to retirees and empty nesters, though families are also present. The average household income of about $113,000 is above the national average, and the area's low crime score contributes to the sense of safety and calm.
Daily routines here revolve around outdoor recreation — boating, kayaking, fishing on Lake Travis, playing a round at the Lago Vista Golf Club, or walking the community trails.
