Our Community

Our Community

The Ranches at Canyon Creek is a ±1900 Acre Ranch Style Community governed by our Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, and self-managed by the Property Owners Association (POA) through an Elected Five Member Board of Directors.

The Ranches at Canyon Creek is in an unincorporated area of Burnet County with a mailing address of Bertram, Texas.  The development is not within any city limit, although Bertram is the closest town with Burnet being the second closest. Oatmeal, which appears on maps, is not a Township as recognized by the State of Texas, but is a geographical reference mark that many know.

Benefits of Living in a POA Community

There are several reasons the number of community associations has exploded from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands over the decades. 

Benefits of Unified Building Requirements

According to the Community Associations Institute, homes in managed communities are highly sought after due to all owners having clearly set guidelines for building on the property. This contributes to a more consistent ability to value the properties due to mandated building requirements of materials which contribute to the community as a whole.

Sense of Community 

Our community is a place to connect in a world that is increasingly disconnected. We do this by promoting owner involvement in our Association through committees and social functions. Without our Owners we would simply be just houses on the land and not that of a community.
