Our Story
In 2021, Texas saw the most significant increase in cremation rates in the history of the funeral industry. According to the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), cremation rates increased to 51.3%. People are now seeking affordable, flexible, and convenient cremations to compliment their lifestyle.
Highland Lakes Cremation Center is operating under a new business model. We gathered years of experience and bundled it with flexible processes, technology, and convenience to offer new affordable cremation options. We are the first and only Cremation Center in the Highland Lakes area. We have examined our years of experience carrying out cremations in traditional funeral home environments and created new offerings to meet the family's needs for personal or private services. We are not your traditional funeral home. Cremation can be arranged from home via our online arranger, over video or teleconference, or in person. You can always text us too if you have questions. We are servicing the surrounding Highland Lake communities. No in-person arrangement is required.
Customers choosing cremation deserve to be honored and celebrated without the traditional funeral home price tag. Our
Cremation Center gives families a beautiful healing environment with the newest cremation offerings in the industry. Let us welcome your family and friends and guide you through your grieving process.
We are family-owned and know the importance of having family surround you in a time of need. Our staff is comprised of some the most experienced, knowledgeable, and caring cremation providers in the industry. We understand that the loss of a loved one is a difficult time for a family.
