Grapevine Lake, reservoir in Texas, United States
Grapevine Lake is a reservoir in Texas that covers a large water surface with multiple arms and coves. The shoreline is lined with trees and grassland, creating different landscapes around the perimeter.
The lake was created in the 1950s by damming the Denton Creek to manage water supplies for the expanding region. This project transformed the landscape and served the communities in north-central Texas.
The lake is easily accessible with multiple public areas around its shoreline where visitors can enjoy water activities. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable visiting conditions with mild temperatures.
Largemouth bass at Grapevine Lake fall under a 14- to 18-inch slot limit, and anglers may keep five black bass daily in any combination. Murrell Park, on the north shore, was a known spot for sand and black bass before the summer 2007 flood damaged it and forced partial closure.
