Volente is a fairly small community on FM 2769, also knows as Dobbs City Scenic Drive or Volente Road, about 30-40 minutes northwest of downtown Austin. Part of the Volente area is actually incorporated as the Village of Volente. The rest of what people call Volente is within Austin’s ETJ.
Around 600 families live in Volente in anything from small homes hidden in the hills to expensive waterfront homes with amazing LakeTravis views. The area is home to several marinas. One Volente favorite spot is Café Bleu on Lime Creek Road. You can take a tram down to the restaurant or tie a boat up and enjoy dinner on the lake.
Volente Beach is a great place to take the kids. Picture a not huge, but fun water park on the north shore of LakeTravis. Volente Beach has some fun tubes, a lazy lagoon, a pirate ship and other fun stuff for kids of all ages.
