About River Place

River Place is a community of approximately 6,200 residents in Travis County, TX. This close-knit community values compassionate, local service providers who understand the bond between families and their pets.

Gated and semi-gated community nestled in canyons along the north shore of Lake Austin with panoramic hill country views.

Custom and semi-custom homes with limestone, stucco, and timber exteriors built into hillsides with walk-out lower levels and multi-level decks.

Local Considerations

  • Wildfire risk is extreme due to steep canyon terrain, heavy cedar coverage, and limited road access for evacuation.
  • Flash flooding through canyon drainages can be sudden and severe given the steep topography channeling runoff rapidly.

Water System

River Place MUD provides water sourced and treated from Lake Austin with conservation-focused management during drought.

Emergency Access

River Place Boulevard is the single-entry road creating significant access constraints for emergency vehicles and evacuation scenarios.
