New Home Communities in Jonestown

If a welcoming, rapidly progressing, small town community appeals to you then look no further than the "Gateway to The Hill Country" - modern, newly-founded Jonestown. Originally founded by the Jones brothers in the fairly recent 1930’s, what later became a quiet, relaxing and fulfilling sanctuary for boaters and fishermen, has now evolved into a fully populated, rural town of residents who gradually settled here, commuting into nearby Austin to work.

New developments to the roads in and out of Jonestown have helped to enhance access for commuters. People now also utilize Jonestown as the starting point when they embark on fantastic tours of the Highland Lakes from the now very aesthetically pleasing Farm to Market Road. So, you can experience the peace and serenity of the rural town setting without having to worry about travelling out to the more populated surrounding towns and cities such as nearby Austin and Lago Vista for example. If you shop or work nearby, all of the surrounding cities provide park and ride facilities, and Howard, Leander and Lakeline stations also serve the area on a regular basis.

Jonestown offers you and your family a warm and temperate climate within which to enjoy a wealth and wide variation of activities including the nearby Lake Travis area which offers you shopping, entertainment, many restaurants to enjoy, swimming, fishing, boating, water sports and lake recreation.

Hop in the car and drive a mere three miles to the East to enjoy all the amazing attractions and family-oriented activities Lago Vista has to offer. A taste of these is its national wildlife refuge, Balcones Canyonlands, Golf and the Airpower Museum. All Lake Travis’ recreations can also be enjoyed at Lago Vista. You can delight in the water sports and lake recreation that is up for grabs in the Highland Lakes area as well. Or why not take your family picnicking or hiking on the Canyon Hiking Trail through Fireman’s Park and Jones Brothers Park, the latter of which boasts a long shoreline for fishing or swimming, kayaking and canoeing.

Other parks include Shady Park, Pecan Bottom Park and Veterans Memorial Park which contains the most tranquil and beautifully shaded picnic area and “Going Home”, which is a statue depicting a young soldier in stunning bronze.

Echoing back to its founding days, Jonestown is still a quiet, rural and relaxing, small town place to live, yet now has the added bonus of being strategically linked to some of the nearby, larger, commerce-rich cities. This offers you the best of both worlds! So why not embrace this opportunity with open arms and hearts.
