Retirees Moving to Austin
A couple from Oklahoma City, retired and ready for a new chapter. They had visited Austin many times, have family here, and knew it was where they wanted to land. Somewhere walkable, vibrant, with great neighbors and close to shopping, good restaurants and outdoor life. What they didn't know yet was exactly where in Austin felt like home.
Finding a Golf / Resort Lifestyle
They came with a clear vision: a forever home in a community that matched how they wanted to live in retirement. Golf. Walking trails. Neighbors who were active and engaged. Shops and restaurants close enough to feel connected, but a neighborhood that still felt like a retreat.
We started broad and got more precise. Flintrock Falls, Falconhead, Barton Creek — each community had its appeal, and each taught us something more about what they were really looking for. There was no rushing this. A forever home deserves a patient search.
After exploring the wider Bee Cave and Lakeway corridor, we found it: Vail Divide in Falconhead West. A neighborhood that quietly checks every box — access to world-class golf, miles of Hill Country trails, and the shops and restaurants of the Hill Country Galleria just minutes away.
Found Their Dream Home in
Falconhead West
An upscale golf community set on 375 acres between Lakeway and Bee Cave, Falconhead West offers luxury living with gorgeous Hill Country views and an active outdoor lifestyle. Here's what draws buyers here — and keeps them:
Golf at your doorstep. Falconhead Golf Club was designed by the PGA Tour Design Center and offers spectacular views alongside a pro-level experience. Pay by the round or choose a membership — either way, the course is five minutes away.
Nature all around. The community connects to over three miles of bike and dog-friendly trails linking to the City of Bee Cave — walk out your door and into the Hill Country. Lake Travis is a short drive away for boating and water sports, and Hamilton Pool — considered one of the best rustic swimming spots in Texas — is close as well.
Everything you need, right nearby. The Hill Country Galleria is just minutes away, featuring Dillard's, REI, and Whole Foods, plus a full range of restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques. Two HEB locations and Trader Joe's are also within easy reach.
Top-rated schools. Homes are zoned to award-winning Lake Travis ISD — consistently one of the highest-performing districts in Central Texas.
Easy access to Austin. The neighborhood sits off Highway 71 with access from Ranch Road 620 as well — about 16 miles from downtown, with a commute that feels much shorter than it sounds.
The homes themselves. Large custom homes ranging in style from Mediterranean villas to modern architecture, selling into the millions — with many backing to golf course views or protected green space.
