In addition to being the home of the Texas state government and the Texas Longhorns, Austin is known as the “Live Music Capital of the World.” Bands from around the globe travel there to play in the clubs and on the stages around Austin.
Barton Creek has been rated one of the country’s top resorts by “Golf Digest,” “Golf World,” “Golf Magazine” and “Golf Week.” And, the resort’s dining experience has received AAA’s 4-Diamond rating for 15 consecutive years.
