Introduction
For luxury homebuyers, convenience and accessibility are just as important as architectural design and location. In Horseshoe Bay, TX, residents enjoy not only world-class golf and lakefront living but also private aviation access through the Horseshoe Bay Resort Jet Center.
This exclusive amenity sets Horseshoe Bay apart from nearly every other Hill Country community, making it the ideal destination for second-home owners, frequent travelers, and high-net-worth individuals seeking a seamless connection between city and resort life.
What Is the Horseshoe Bay Jet Center?
The Horseshoe Bay Resort Jet Center (KHBS) is a 6,000-foot lighted runway and full-service FBO (Fixed Base Operator) located adjacent to Horseshoe Bay Resort. Unlike many small-town airports, it can accommodate a wide range of aircraft—from turboprops and light jets to mid-size corporate jets.
Key features include:
- 6,000-ft asphalt runway (16/34) with modern lighting
- On-site FBO offering concierge-level service
- Jet A and Avgas fueling
- Aircraft parking, hangars, and tie-downs
- Pilot amenities (lounge, weather briefing, flight planning)
- Direct access to Horseshoe Bay Resort shuttles and golf carts
