Fodor's Expert Review Horseshoe Bay Resort

The breathtaking views of Lake LBJ spreading its glimmering fingers should be your first clue that this isn't your typical Texas resort experience. Every room overlooks a lush, tropical-meets-Texas landscape. Subdued earth-toned decor keeps the focus on the views. There's enough to keep you busy for days: access to three championship golf courses, a full-service spa, and clay and hard-surface tennis courts. Though quiet in location, silence is easily broken if louder guests are returning to their rooms later at night.
