The Lake and Marina
LBJ is a long and large man-made body of water stretching several miles of the Colorado River downstream from the convergence of the Colorado and Llano Rivers in Kingsland, and extending to the dam just beyond Horseshoe Bay. The Lakehouse is on a cove of Lake LBJ near Sandy Creek. Many believe this is the best cove on the lake.
The lake, governed and patrolled by the LCRA, Most weekdays the lake is quiet. On weekends and holidays there is more traffic on the lake.
