Eagle Mountain Lake Park is located on the eastern shore of Eagle Mountain Lake in Tarrant County, about 20 miles northwest of downtown Fort Worth. The 400-acre property was purchased by the Tarrant Regional Water District in 2006. In addition to the park, Bennett Benner Pettit was asked to design the trailheads, trails and overlook areas. The design goal was to recapture the past by recreating a rustic-style farming environment that was common years ago. Tumbled stone and galvanized metal construction are the dominant features displayed throughout the project. On-site exhibits of an operating windmill and typical farm structures reinforce the feeling of the past and the awareness of the preservation of natural and cultural resources. A park for all ages, nature trails with colorful information boards are scattered throughout. Eagle Mountain Lake Park was created to preserve the past and enjoy the diversity and beauty of the landscape so that it may be enjoyed by many for generations to come.
