About Point

Point is a quiet, rural community in Rains County, located about eight miles northwest of Emory and an hour east of the Dallas metro area. Sitting right where U.S. Highway 69 meets Farm Roads 47 and 514, the town gives residents wide-open country views while keeping daily travel straightforward. It has deep agricultural roots, surrounded by green pastures, local ranches, and the scenic waters of Lake Tawakoni just a short drive away.

Having the lake so close makes outdoor recreation a big part of living here. Residents spend weekends boating, fishing for catfish and bass, or camping along the shoreline. Around town, daily routines revolve around friendly local businesses, area churches, and the Rains Independent School District. For bigger errands, specialized healthcare, or a wider selection of shops, neighboring Emory is only a quick ten-minute drive down the road.
