About
Living in Burnet
Burnet is the county seat of Burnet County and the self-proclaimed Bluebonnet Capital of Texas, sitting at the edge of the Highland Lakes chain about an hour northwest of Austin. The town combines small-city amenities with easy access to Lake Buchanan, Inks Lake, and some of the best wildflower viewing in the state.
Downtown Burnet has seen a revival with new restaurants, a craft brewery, and a growing arts community. The town serves as a commercial hub for the Highland Lakes region, offering more services and shopping than surrounding communities while maintaining a distinctly small-town feel.
Why Burnet?
- Gateway to Highland Lakes — Buchanan, Inks, LBJ
