Volente Beach has gotten a facelift and a new name. Shore Club Volente Beach or SCVB for short is located on the shores of Lake Travis and is the perfect getaway for children and adults alike on a hot summer day. We have pools for children and an adult only pool with a swim up tiki bar. We have our own sandy beachfront and 3 volleyball courts (2 lighted and 1 in the water). Although SCVB offers an upscale casual restaurant specializing in hand-cut steaks and fresh seafood and a beach bar & grill with the best burgers on the lake, picnics are permitted, so load up the cooler and come on out. We have plenty of options for the kids as well, including pizza and ice cream. Boat and wave runner rentals are also available.

The parks’ two miles of shoreline offer opportunities for hiking, fishing, camping, picnicking and lake access via an excellent boat ramp. Several inviting, shaded picnic and camping areas are situated along a bluff above a gently sloping, rocky waterfront.
