Canyon Lake is both a reservoir and the unincorporated community of about 30,000 people wrapped around it. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers finished Canyon Dam on the Guadalupe in 1964, and the 8,200-acre lake it created drew weekend cabins in the 1960s and 1970s, retirees in the 1980s and 1990s, and gated acreage subdivisions like Mystic Shores since the early 2000s. Most houses sit on limestone slabs, many on septic, with water from wells or the Texas Water Company.
The lake's history is written in its floods. On July 4, 2002, after more than 30 inches fell upstream, water went over the emergency spillway for the first time and carved Canyon Lake Gorge. In 2025 the lake sat at 61 percent of capacity until the July 4 Hill Country flood raised it fifteen feet in a month. Houses here get wet from attic tanks, freeze breaks, and the occasional lake rise onto a low lot.
This site routes Canyon Lake homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider inspects before any scope is written.
A vacation home that froze while empty in February 2021 is burst pipe water damage, and the water may have run for days. A failed well-pressure tank or an attic heater is water extraction and then drying. A damp room with no obvious cause in a 1970s cabin is leak detection before anyone pulls paneling.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Canyon Lake office posts the lake level, the release rate, and flood operations. The Canyon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce is the local business directory for an area with no city hall. Permits come from Comal County.
