Briarcliff started out as a resort community on Lake Travis in the 1960's. Most area residents were not full time but rather built summer homes and cottages along the lakes shores and surrounding hills. Water sports and country club activities kept the part time residents happy and active during their stay. Eventually these residents either sold or retired there and this resort community slowly transformed into a small full-time community. Today the population of Braircliff stands a shade under 900 residents.
