Young Republicans in Burnet County, Texas
From Marble Falls and Burnet to Bertram, Granite Shoals, Cottonwood Shores, Meadowlakes, Highland Haven, and Spicewood, Highland Lakes Young Republicans is the home base for conservatives ages 18–40 across Burnet County.
The heart of the Highland Lakes
Burnet County was organized in 1854 and named for David G. Burnet, the first provisional president of the Republic of Texas. Its county seat, Burnet, is the self-proclaimed Bluebonnet Capital of Texas, and Marble Falls is its largest city. Five Highland Lakes touch the county: Lake Buchanan, Inks Lake, Lake LBJ, Lake Marble Falls, and Lake Travis. It’s home to Inks Lake State Park, Longhorn Cavern State Park, Fort Croghan, and Spider Mountain, the only chairlift-served mountain bike park in the country.
It’s also one of the fastest-growing counties in the Hill Country, growing an estimated 16% between 2020 and 2025. That growth brings new jobs, new neighbors, and new decisions about roads, water, and taxes. Young conservatives need to be part of those decisions.
