Lewisville, Texas: Suburb with Large Boating and Fishing Lake and Historic Downtown
Located about 25 miles from Dallas, Lewisville enjoys a rural setting supported by a range of outdoor recreation, most of which center on Lake Lewisville. During the summer, families take to the water for boating, water skiing, and fishing. You can catch largemouth bass in coves around the water, and crappies can be found in bulk under the bridges that cross the lake. Its 233 miles of shoreline also make it a great spot for swimming. For a comprehensive view of the landscape, head to the Lewisville Independent School District Outdoor Learning Center, or LISDOLA, and hike past wetlands, forests, rivers, and streams.
A number of farms and golf courses are also scattered across the area. In town, you can dine at historic taverns and ethnic restaurants. And there are several vineyards within a short drive—the neighboring town of Grapevine was named for the wild grapes that grow there. Next to local wineries in downtown Grapevine, you’ll find galleries and craft boutiques selling work from local artists.
