Georgetown is the northern most “gateway” to the gently rolling hills of Central Texas. Austin is 26 miles south. Dallas is two hours north. Houston is two hours southeast and San Antonio is one-and-a-half hours south. Access to Georgetown via the Austin- Bergstrom International Airport and the north/south highway artery of Interstate 35 and east/west highway artery of Highway 29 make traveling to and from Georgetown easy.

Driving Directions from Austin: Take IH35 North to exit 261. Turn right at University Ave. Travel east to Main St. (0.73 miles), take a left at the traffic light. Follow Main St. to 10th. At the stop sign, turn right. A large free parking lot will be on your left.

Driving Directions from Waco/Dallas/Ft.Worth: Take IH35 South to exit 261. Turn left at University Ave., crossing IH35 bridge. Travel east to Main St. (0.74 miles), take a left at the traffic light. Follow Main St. to 10th Street. At the stop sign, turn right. A large free parking lot will be on your left.

Take a driving tour through Georgetown’s Historic Old Town and see the beautiful blooming
red poppy flowers print our Red Poppy Map.
