'''Shady Hollow''' is a [[census-designated place]] (CDP) in southwestern [[Travis County, Texas|Travis County]], [[Texas]], United States, and is partially in the City of [[Austin, Texas|Austin]]. It is located {{convert|10|mi|km|spell=in}} southwest of [[Downtown Austin]], near the Travis/[[Hays County, Texas|Hays]] county line.<ref name="Handbook">{{Handbook of Texas|id=hfs11|name=Shady Hollow, Texas}}</ref> The population was 4,822 at the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Explore Census Data |url=https://data.census.gov/all?q=Shady+hallow+texas |access-date=2023-10-07 |website=data.census.gov}}</ref>

==History==
[[File:Shady-Hollow-sign.jpg|thumb]]
In 1972 Austin Savings and Loan Owners began development on {{convert|600|acre|km2}} of land. In 1978 the homeowners organized the Shady Hollow Homeowners Corporation to counter what they believed was misrepresentation from the developer. The homeowners accused Austin Savings and Loan Owners of installing development more dense than advertised. The two groups formed an agreement, resulting in the creation of parks and recreational facilities along Slaughter Creek; this included the Park on Doe Run. The CDP also received several amenities, including a community center, tennis courts, and a basketball court. In 1984, as per the agreement, Austin Savings and Loan Owners deeded the park and recreational facilities to the Shady Hollow Homeowners Corporation.<ref name="Handbook"/>
