East Guadalupe blends river-town ease with university energy, putting residents close to the San Marcos River and the heartbeat of San Marcos. Tucked on the east side of downtown in Hays County, the neighborhood combines classic cottages and updated bungalows with a lively local arts and music scene. Longtime favorite Cheatham Street Warehouse has launched countless Texas music careers, and its stage still hums nightly at Cheatham Street Warehouse. Just up the hill, Texas State University anchors the community with lectures, performances, and Bobcat game days that keep calendars full.
Outdoorsy residents prize everyday river access for paddling, swimming, and tubing, plus shady pocket parks and low-traffic streets ideal for walking or biking to cafés, craft breweries, and downtown festivals. Families appreciate being served by San Marcos CISD, with nearby campuses such as Mendez Elementary, Goodnight Middle School, and San Marcos High School, while lifelong learners find year-round programs and trails through Spring Lake via The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment. History buffs can dig deeper into local heritage at the LBJ Museum of San Marcos, then catch live music or a food-truck bite before strolling home.
