Garland is a mid-size city in Dallas County, northeast Texas, but it began as two separate communities, Embree and Duck Creek, in 1874. A competition commenced shortly after between the two communities, who were vying to host the new post office. The dispute was settled when Dallas County Judge Thomas Nash requested that the post office be located between the two communities. This was completed in 1887 by congressman Joe Abbott and the site of the post office was named Garland (after then U.S. Attorney General Augustus Hill Garland). Within a short time, Embree, Duck Creek and Garland were combined to become the city of Garland, which was incorporated in 1891.

Garland isn’t LA, but as a satellite community of Dallas, it is home to a number of celebrities from the worlds of basketball, football and music. Book an RV in Garland and you are on your way to experiencing first hand an important and popular part of American life and culture.

Spring Creek Forest Preserve is a managed and protected area with towering trees, some of which are anywhere from 100 to 300 years old. Scientists have observed hundreds of plant and animal species within the park. The preserve has an interpretive walking trail that loops around to end where it started, and hikers can learn more about the preserve and the types of natural environments that exist within the preserve.
