Lake LBJ
In the Highland Lakes of Central Texas


Lake LBJ is one of the central gems in the Highland Lakes chain, a series of six reservoirs stretching along the Colorado River in Central Texas. Known for its constant water level, Lake LBJ offers ideal conditions for water sports year-round, making it a favorite among locals and visitors alike. Boating, wakeboarding, and waterskiing are especially popular, with smooth waters and plenty of open space for high-speed fun. The lake’s location—nestled between Kingsland and Horseshoe Bay—makes it a prime access point to the entire Highland Lakes system.
As part of the Highland Lakes, Lake LBJ provides a gateway to broader adventures across the region. Paddlers often explore from LBJ to nearby Inks Lake or Lake Marble Falls, enjoying the changing scenery and calm coves along the way. These lakes are interconnected through a series of dams, offering a unique opportunity to experience multiple water bodies in one trip. Whether you’re jet skiing at full throttle or paddleboarding through quiet inlets, Lake LBJ stands out as a central hub for aquatic recreation in the Hill Country.
Fishing throughout the Highland Lakes is outstanding, and Lake LBJ is no exception. Anglers cast for largemouth bass, catfish, crappie, and white bass from boats or shoreline. The clean, well-managed waters of the Highland Lakes support a healthy fish population, drawing both casual and competitive anglers. Fishing at sunrise or sunset offers not only great chances for a bite but also sweeping views of the surrounding hills that define the Highland Lakes experience.
Lake LBJ also connects visitors to the lifestyle and leisure of the greater Highland Lakes region. Waterfront marinas, lakeside parks, and campgrounds cater to outdoor lovers, while nearby towns like Marble Falls and Burnet provide access to dining, wineries, and scenic drives. Whether you’re touring the full chain or anchoring at LBJ for a weekend of watersports, Lake LBJ embodies the adventurous, laid-back charm of the Highland Lakes.
Some of the most popular Lake LBJ locations include:
- The Nightengale Archaeological Center at Kingsland.
- One Lake LBJ attraction you don't want to miss is Longhorn Cavern State Park.
- The Balloons over Horseshoe Bay Resort event in April offers visitors a chance to take a hot-air balloon ride.
