Lake LBJ is a reservoir on the Colorado River in the Texas Hill Country. The lake was formed in 1950 by the construction of Granite Shoals Dam by the LCRA. The lake is part of The Highland Lakes, which is a chain of seven lakes from Lake Buchanan to Lake Austin. Lake LBJ is 21 miles long and it’s largely popular due to its constant level which provides ideal conditions for boating, water-skiing, jet-skiing and other water sports. The lake is also an ideal place to go fishing; it is stocked with several species of fish including largemouth bass, white bass, catfish, and crappie.
Lake LBJ was named after President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965; its original name was Lake Granite Shoals. In addition to his work to enact the Rural Electrification Act that formed the basis for building the Highland Lakes, President Johnson owned a ranch on the lake and while he was both President and Vice President he entertained many national and foreign leaders.
Horseshoe Bay Resort is also on Lake LBJ, an ideal place to relax and get away from your busy lifestyle. Horseshoe Bay Resort has a marina on Lake LBJ which provides many services. Including water sports rental equipment, deck party boats, ski boats with drivers, wave runners, and fishing boats. Additional services include fuel service, slip rentals, leases, boat launch access, fishing tours, sunset pontoon cruises and Bay Lady chartered cruises which you can rent by the hour or by the day.
Horseshoe Bay is a wonderful place to live; it’s close to Austin, San Antonio and Fredericksburg. Because of Horseshoe Bays location many people come here to retire or for a great vacation on the lake. Horseshoe Bays real estate is also great, whether you purchase a condo/townhouse or house you will always have great views of the Hill Country, Lake LBJ and one of the great golf courses. So, come to Horseshoe Bay and see what you’re missing out on.

Sometimes a real estate agent will walk into a home that is basically attractive, yet communicates the feeling that something is lacking. Then the agent notices that all of the drapes are closed, interior lights are off and there is a lot of overgrown shrubbery blocking the sunlight that might otherwise pour through the windows.
A dark house is not as appealing to most buyers as one that is flooded with light. As a part of your preparations to market your home, try to maximize the light in your home. Make sure that all the windows are clean and the drapes are open when the house is being shown. A fresh coat of light paint can do a lot to brighten up the interior. If your house has very dark paneling, and you do not wish to repaint the walls, you may want to consider adding additional lamps. Your real estate agent may be able to provide other simple and cost-effective ideas about how to maximize your home's appeal.
