104 High View Trl, Lakeway, TX 78738

Set on a bluff homesite in The Estates at Rough Hollow Vista Ridge, 104 High View Trail is a 2025 Drees Custom Homes residence built on the Lynmar II — a plan that has earned its following through balance rather than excess. The orientation does the first work: panoramic, south-facing Hill Country and canyon views open across a two-story wall of glass and carry light through the main living areas from morning to dusk. Inside its 5,371 square feet are five bedrooms, five full and one half bath, and a main-level primary suite framed to the view, paired with a spa-inspired bath — freestanding tub, oversized frameless-glass shower in a marble slab look, dual vanities — and expansive custom dual closets. The island kitchen sets white cabinetry stacked to the ceiling against a broad quartz-topped island, black lantern pendants, stainless appliances, and a walk-in pantry, opening to a living room anchored by a linear fireplace flanked by walls of glass. A glass-enclosed wine bar with display cabinetry adds a natural gathering point, while a private study handles the workday. Upstairs, a game room and a separate media room create space to unwind, and a covered balcony carries the view outdoors. The main covered living area steps out to a stone summer kitchen and grill beneath a wood-plank ceiling. A dark metal roof, zoned energy-efficient systems, and an oversized three-car side-entry garage complete the home across roughly half a landscaped acre. Beyond it, Rough Hollow ranks among Lake Travis's most complete communities: the Highland Village with resort-style pools, a lazy river, and a splash pad and a neighborhood grocery store; a private Yacht Club and Marina with pool dining at the Canyon Grille; a fitness center; and more than 22 miles of trails, with tennis, pickleball, and dog parks throughout, plus Lakeway's golf and Lake Travis access within acclaimed Lake Travis ISD. New construction, a proven plan, and a true view homesite, 104 High View Trail answers all three.

Rough Hollow is the Lake Travis community that built a private marina first and then put the houses around it. The Rough Hollow Marina holds 196 boat slips directly on Lake Travis. Most lakeside neighborhoods require you to drive to a public ramp, launch, and deal with weekend crowds. Here, the marina is neighborhood infrastructure, and that proximity changes how residents relate to the water on a Tuesday afternoon versus only on holidays.

Rough Hollow is in Lakeway within the 78738 zip code, about 25 minutes west of downtown via Highway 71 and Hamilton Pool Road. The community sits along the southern shore of Lake Travis. Bee Cave's retail district is about seven minutes east, and Lakeway's commercial center is ten minutes west. The location is in the western growth corridor that has absorbed much of Austin's suburban expansion, and commercial infrastructure has largely caught up.

Housing spans from the early 2010s through current construction. Hill Country Contemporary dominates at roughly 35 percent, with limestone, metal roofing, and walls of glass oriented toward lake and canyon views. Texas Mediterranean accounts for about 25 percent. Modern Farmhouse at about 10 percent reflects recent trends. Townhomes and patio homes start in the low $500s, family homes trade between $800,000 and $1.5 million, and custom lakefront or ridgetop homes push from $2 million past $4 million. The size and variety create more pricing diversity than most gated Lake Travis neighborhoods.

Lake Travis ISD serves Rough Hollow. Families attend Bee Cave or Lakeway Elementary, Lake Travis Middle, and Lake Travis High. The district has a strong track record in academics, athletics, and extracurriculars. The commercial tax base in Bee Cave and Lakeway supports funding for facilities and programs. For families comparing districts, Lake Travis ISD competes directly with Eanes for academic outcomes.

The community maintains 22 miles of internal trails connecting neighborhoods, parks, and the lakefront. A lazy river pool, resort swimming complex, fitness center, and sports courts anchor the activity calendar. The marina offers boat and kayak rentals for residents without slip ownership. Canyon Grille serves American fare with views. SP Brazilian handles celebratory dinners. The Grove Wine Bar works for weeknight plates. Sixty Three brings cocktail-focused dining. Cafe Blue covers seafood, and Trattoria Lisina in Driftwood provides Italian in a vineyard setting worth the 30-minute drive. The Rough Hollow Lakeside Trail offers flat walking and running along the water as a daily route.

Compared to the Hills of Lakeway, Rough Hollow is newer and more lake-focused. The Hills offers a more established country club atmosphere, while Rough Hollow leans into water and trails. Compared to Serene Hills, Rough Hollow is significantly larger with more housing variety, but Serene Hills counters with a smaller feel and higher green space percentage. The marina is the clearest differentiator. No other master-planned community in the corridor offers that level of built-in lake infrastructure.

Rough Hollow fits buyers who want lake life integrated into daily routine rather than reserved for weekends. If you would take a boat out on a Wednesday evening or paddleboard at sunrise before the school run, the marina makes that frictionless. Families who value year-round resort amenities, Lake Travis ISD, and the social infrastructure of a large active community will find the lifestyle well-developed. It is a community that has moved past early-phase growing pains and now operates with a clear identity built around the water.
