FAMILY REUNIONS
Valentine Lakeside Resort has

meeting here for twenty years or more. There’s a reason they keep coming back –
friendly service and outstanding facilities.
If you’re thinking about beginning a
family tradition, just remember – summer isn’t the only good time of year. Try
fall for cooler weather, spring for the wildflowers or winter for Thanksgiving, Christmas
or New Years gatherings. We’ll be happy to help you with suggestions to make the most
of your event.
WATERFRONT
.
The quieter Llano River arm of Lake LBJ is a
vacationer’s dream.
And you should have seen the ones that got away!
Whether your ideal activities are water sports,
fishing or relaxing and watching the boats go by, we have a spot for you.
Your boat can be launched
from our concrete ramp and we have ample parking for your trailer. Slips with a lift are
$12.00 per day, slips without a lift are $8.00 per day and personal watercraft ramps are
$6.00 per day.
Our lighted boat docks include electric lifts and
ramps for your personal watercraft. Whether you choose an electric lift or regular slip,
your boat will be protected from the weather and ready for your next run. You can plug
your battery charger into the electrical outlet right in your slip.
FISHING
HOUSE
No matter what the weather or time of day,
you can fish in comfort in our recently renovated, enclosed, lighted fishing house. A
covered, outside deck allows guests to enjoy the breeze and serene view while bringing in
crappie, bass or catfish – some of our most popular fish. April and October seem to
be the best months for crappie, although they are caught year ‘round.
Children and adults alike enjoy building
fires in the wood burning stove – we supply the wood. Lots of kids have caught their
first fish here. We make it easy by selling bait and small tackle. And don’t forget
your camera!
SPRING
Each spring our landscape and roadsides are
blanketed with wildflowers – sometimes well into the month of June.
Since some of the
prettiest areas in the state are near Lake LBJ it’s no wonder that so many people
stay with us while attending the Annual Bluebonnet Festival and enjoy the Wildflower
Trail; and don’t forget the Crawfish Open, Art & Wine Trail and Spring Arts &
Crafts Shows.
SUMMER
Whether
you’re relaxing in the hot tub, splashing in the pool,
or simply sunbathing beside it, this is the place to unwind.
With vacations, holiday
weekends and the kids out of school, summer is the most active time at the lake. No other
resort in the Highland Lakes can boast of having a heart shaped pool as well as a hot tub.
The pool area is enclosed by a vine covered fence for a bit of privacy.
Kingsland has a great Fourth of July
celebration with its "Aqua Boom" activities, including street and boat parades,
a poker run and an Arts and Crafts Fair. Our waterfront provides great viewing of the
spectacular fireworks display.
FALL &
WINTER
Fall and winter are among the
best kept secrets about the Texas Hill Country. The weather is warm – not hot- and
the nights are cool. This is a great time of year to climb Enchanted Rock, the
country’s second largest monolith.
The Hill Country is
home to many varieties of birds, and even more visit as they fly to and from their winter
homes. But some of the most famous birds – American Eagles – make their home
right here. Visitors come from all parts of the world to see the three adult eagles
tending their young in a nest just off State Highway 29.
Valentine Lakeside Resort is a great place to unwind and
share stories after a day of deer or turkey hunting. "Fish Tales" are not the
only ones told here!
It’s also a great time to gaze at the stars,
roast marshmallows and make S’mores around our fire pit.
Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to gather here
with your family. Pick up pecans as they fall from our stately trees and treat your family
to a fresh baked pie!
The Hill
Country really lights up during the Christmas Season – and Valentine Lakeside Resort
is one of the best places to stay while you see it all. The Walkway of Lights in Marble
Falls is a treat for all ages. In Burnet, Main Street Bethlehem brings alive the story of
the Nativity and Christmas at Fort Croghan takes you back to life on the Texas frontier.
WINTER TEXANS Call for Special Rates on Extended Stays
Even if
you’re not a Winter Texan, meeting these friendly folks from up
north is a lot of fun, with our monthly fish fries and other social activities.
Mild winters and the various
recreational opportunities that abound in the Highland Lakes area make us a popular
destination for Winter Texans – they even come from Canada! Make your reservations
now, while we still have space available.
