Preserve Overview:

Preserve Overview:

Grapevine Springs Preserve is a 15.5-acre, park-like preserve located along Grapevine Creek in the City of Coppell. Preserve parking is located at the Coppell Senior and Community Center which is directly adjacent to the preserve. 

Preserve Features:

The preserve features rock work constructed by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in the 1930s, including a rock-lined channel, walls, flumes, bridge abutments, and paths. Decomposed granite trails wind through post oak trees, providing a tranquil open space that can be used for picnicking or relaxation. The site is also a popular location for photoshoots and weddings. The Coppell Senior and Community Center provides an exterior-access restroom near the entrance to the preserve.

Preserve History:

The Preserve is named after Grapevine Creek which flows through the preserve. In 1843, Sam Houston, President of the Republic of Texas, camped under a post oak tree as he waited to sign the first major Native American peace treaty. The treaty was eventually signed several months later at Bird's Fort, near present-day Euless. You can visit this same tree today! It is marked with a sign as the Sam Houston Treaty Oak.
