About Bee Cave

Bee Cave is a small but fast-growing city west of Austin, served by Lake Travis Independent School District. Its name comes from a large cave of wild bees noted by early settlers, and the Hill Country setting still matters even as development has filled in. Bee Cave has become known for shopping, offices, and upscale residential growth along the Highway 71 corridor. It feels like a polished Austin-edge community, with hill views, schools, and rapid suburban momentum.
