A Gated Community

Hideaway is a resort-style living with residential opportunities. The majority of the members of this community live here all year round. 

Weather in Hideaway

Hideaway’s weather differs from the dry, desert-like climate Texas is known for. Summers are hot, but more humid due to the Gulf sending a subtropical jet stream northward. Winters are mild with occasional cold snaps but not much snow. Rain is more likely during winter with thunderstorms in the spring and summer. As a result, pine forests like those found in the southeast are the predominant land feature with rolling hills and plains.
