About Bear Creek

Bear Creek is a peaceful village tucked into the Texas Hill Country roughly 16 miles southwest of downtown Austin. Home to around 400 residents in the wooded Bear Creek Oaks neighborhood, the community features spacious acreage lots, dark night skies, and mature live oaks. It sits right along Ranch Road 1826, putting you just minutes from South Austin while preserving a quiet, rural neighborhood feel.

Families are served by the highly regarded Dripping Springs Independent School District, including Sycamore Springs Elementary, Sycamore Springs Middle, and Dripping Springs High School. Daily errands, grocery shopping, and local dining are a quick drive away in nearby Oak Hill, Circle C, and downtown Dripping Springs. The village is an appealing option for homebuyers looking for generous property sizes and scenic surroundings with an easy commute into the city.
