Travelers are welcome to come experience the splendor of the holiday season at Horseshoe Bay Resort, the premier golf resort destination in the Central Texas Hill Country and part of the Crescent Hotels & ResortsLatitudes collection, which continues its tradition of seasonal signature events with its upcoming slate of Winter Wonderland festivities. 

To kick off the holidays in style, the resort will host its third annual Holiday Tree Lighting of its giant 50-ft tall Christmas tree from 5 pm to 8 pm on November 30th in the center of our Live Oak Lawn. Guests will enjoy the music and mesmerizing synchronized lights.
