About Spring Branch
Spring Branch is a community in western Comal County in the Texas Hill Country. It runs along US 281 where the highway crosses the Guadalupe River, about 32 driving miles north of San Antonio. The incorporated City of Spring Branch is only a narrow strip along US 281, Spring Branch Road and FM 311. The name covers much more ground than that, though. It belongs to the 78070 ZIP code area, which reaches into Kendall and Blanco counties and takes in the TX-46 corridor, River Crossing and Mystic Shores on the west side of Canyon Lake. Spring Branch suits buyers who want a Hill Country home on a generous lot or a few acres, with the Guadalupe and Canyon Lake close by and a straight drive down US 281 into San Antonio.

The vibe
German farmers settled along a spring-fed creek near the Guadalupe River in 1852, and the creek gave Spring Branch its name. For more than 160 years it stayed unincorporated, held together by ranches, the school district, a volunteer fire department and a few businesses along the highway. In November 2015 voters chose to incorporate a small general-law city. They did it to keep local control as Bulverde grew to the south. Even so, most of what people call Spring Branch is still unincorporated Comal County.
The land is classic limestone Hill Country. Rocky slopes are covered in live oak and cedar, bald cypress lines the creeks, and the ground rises from the river bottoms to ridgetop views. Homes are spread across rural subdivisions, gated communities, small ranches and lake neighborhoods rather than laid out on a town grid. Building here means dealing with bedrock, steep grades and drainage across rocky ground. Most properties run on private wells and septic systems.
The pace follows the outdoors. People tube, paddle and fish the Guadalupe, take boats out on Canyon Lake, and hunt white-tailed deer in the fall, and ranching is still part of daily life. Anhalt Hall, the old German dance hall in the area, still hosts traditional community events. Spring Branch feels like a stretch of open country with a highway running through it, not a downtown with a courthouse square.
Market snapshot
As of June 2026, Redfin put the median sale price for the 78070 ZIP code at about $449,000, down roughly 15.6 percent from a year earlier. That drop is measured against an unusually high peak earlier in the cycle. HomeLight's June 18, 2026 snapshot was close to Redfin's: a median sale price of about $442,000, a median of 117 days on market before going under contract, and homes selling at about 96 percent of list price. Movoto counts the market differently, and for May 2026 it reported a median sold price of $649,400, about $244 per square foot and an average of 91 days on market.
The gap between those numbers is the real story. Spring Branch sells everything from modest homes on small lots to custom homes on acreage and lake-area estates, so with few sales each month the median swings a lot depending on what closed. Homes are taking longer to sell and selling a little under list, so buyers have more room to negotiate than they did a few years ago. Every property should be priced against nearby sales of the same type, not against an area-wide median. For unincorporated parcels there is no city property tax. The 2025 base rate was about 1.34 per $100 of value, made up of Comal County and Comal ISD. We could not find a published price per acre for land in Spring Branch, so ask an LBG agent for recent land sales.

Next door, Honey Creek State Natural Area protects a 1.5-mile spring-fed creek that you can only visit on a guided tour.

Canyon Lake sits just to the east, and River Crossing has a private golf club.
Dining and errands mostly mean the shopping centers along US 281 in Bulverde. US 281 runs south to Bulverde, Loop 1604 and San Antonio, which is about 32 miles by car.
