HuttoShowcase Homes

Hutto, Texas, is a quirky town full of neighborly charm that is located on the outskirts of the Austin-Round Rock Metropolitan Area. This charming hamlet is proudly known as the “Hippo Capital of Texas,” that has a historic downtown full of unique shops and restaurants, and even a self-guided hippo tour, that really captures the hippo-loving culture of Hutto. Although there’s plenty to see and do in Hutto, the small Texas Hill Country city also offers easy access to many of the Austin areas’ top places. Hutto is just 30 miles from downtown Austin and just minutes from other popular destinations, such as Round Rock, Georgetown, and Pflugerville.

Hunting down these hippo statues isn’t the only thing that will keep you busy in Hutto. Along with The Golf Club at Star Ranch, one of the best public golf courses in Texas and the sights and tastes of Old Town, you can savor a relaxing picnic at Hutto Lake Park, or get some exercise on the three-mile-long Cottonwood Trail. If you’re a sports fan, you can get a glimpse of the future stars of baseball at a Round Rock Express minor league game, held at Dell Diamond just a few minutes west of Hutto.

For a quiet getaway that’s not too far from all the hustle and bustle of the thriving Austin area, head to Hutto and experience its small-town charm.
