Lago Vista, TX

109 Apartments for Rent with Pools

Lago Vista is a gorgeous little city in the hill country about 20 miles northwest of Austin, Texas. Located on the northern shore of Lake Travis (which looks like the shadow of a dragon from the air), this scenic community was incorporated in the early 1980s, but was actually developed in the 1960s as a lake resort. Back in the 60s, summer homes, camping facilities and water sports were the main attractions of the area. The population has grown to 6,369, and continues to steadily increase as people fall in love with and move to the area. This is the hill country, and part of the amazing allure of living in Lago Vista is due to the tiered landscape that affords a large portion of its residents stunning lake views. See more

Finding apartments with a pool in Lago Vista means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.

Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.

Finding apartments with a pool in Lago Vista could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.

Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
