Point Venture is a village in western Travis County, Texas, situated on a peninsula along the north shore of Lake Travis in the Hill Country west of Austin. With a population of about 1,260 at the 2020 census, it is a small, amenity-rich residential community that has evolved from a weekend getaway into a full-time place to live. The community's origins date to the early 1970s, when it was developed as a second-home and family vacation destination on the lake. It remained primarily recreational for decades before incorporating as a village in August 2000, a step that formalized its local government and reflected the growing number of permanent residents. Today Point Venture is a genuine residential village, with children attending the Lago Vista Independent School District and a community that extends well beyond seasonal use. Its signature feature is the concentration of shared amenities. A 163-slip marina provides Lake Travis boating access, a nine-hole golf course winds through the rocky, cedar-dotted Hill Country terrain of the peninsula, and a private waterfront park offers boat ramps, a playground, sports courts, and beach-style recreation. A pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and a community library round out the offerings, all maintained through the property owners association. Life in Point Venture revolves around the lake and these shared facilities, giving the village a distinctive resort character unusual for a municipality of its size. For homebuyers, Point Venture offers lake access, Hill Country scenery, and a self-contained recreational lifestyle within commuting distance of Austin, making it a natural fit for boaters, golfers, and those seeking a relaxed lakeside community.
