Little Cypress Creek Preserve
Little Cypress Creek Preserve (LCCP) is a 58-acre undeveloped park site with a series of 10 man-made shallow ponds that are designed to mature into a vibrant, functioning wetland. Future plans for the preserve include developing it into an educational and recreational nature area.

This preserve was acquired at no cost to the county through conservation easement wetland mitigation in a public/private partnership between Precinct 4 and Legacy Land Trust (LLT).

Opening Day

In March 2005, Commissioner Jerry Eversole hosted a volunteer workday that marked the official opening of Little Cypress Creek Preserve. Personnel and volunteers from Legacy Land Trust, Texas Master Naturalists, and Precinct 4’s Parks Department cleared debris and planted trees as part of the opening day activities.

"We have great hopes of eventually developing this preserve into an educational and recreational community asset to be enjoyed by school children, scouting organizations, trail walkers, and nature lovers alike," stated Commissioner Eversole.
