Abes Landing

Description

Abes Landing is a beautiful community on the North side of Granbury. This community started out as a privately owned ranch operation. Now it is home to an impressive list of amenities including a one of a kind clubhouse, community pool, and private boat slips.


Granbury is a city and the county seat of Hood County, Texas, United States. As of the 2010 census, the city's population was 7,978, and it is the principal city of the Granbury micropolitan statistical area. Granbury is located 35 miles (56 km) southwest of Fort Worth, Texas.

Granbury started as a square and log cabin courthouse. Many of the buildings on the square are now registered historic landmarks, including the Granbury Opera House, which still hosts "Broadway" productions. The city name originated from the Confederate General Hiram B. Granberry. To explain why the city name is spelled differently, some scholars believe the name Granberry was misread on a document. Still, recent findings have concluded that Granberry chose to spell his name Granbury.

A recent expansion of the city was made possible by building a Brazos River dam in 1969, which formed Lake Granbury, a long, narrow lake that flows through the city.

Granbury and Hood County are rich in Texas history. David (Davy) Crockett's wife, Elizabeth, settled in Hood County in 1853 following the Texas Revolution against Mexico. Crockett, as well as other Alamo participants, received 640 acres in land grants. The Crockett family received land in what is now Hood County. Elizabeth Crockett is buried in Acton State Historic Site, the smallest state park in Texas. A large statue of Elizabeth Crockett marks her gravesite. Several of Crockett's descendants still reside in Hood County.

Granbury is served by Granbury Regional Airport (GDJ). The neighborhood of Pecan Plantation has a municipal airport (PCP). It operates only recreational flights.

The Fort Worth and Rio Grande Railway, building towards Brownwood from Fort Worth, reached Granbury in 1887. In the 20th century, the line was owned successively by the Frisco Railway, the Santa Fe Railway, and the South Orient Railroad before being acquired by the Fort Worth and Western Railroad in 1999
