Description: The Houston Campsite Oak, a Post Oak (Quercus stellata) in Grapevine Springs Preserve, Coppell, Texas, United States, is where Sam Houston and his agents camped in 1843 while successfully negotiating a peace treaty with Native American tribes. The Works Progress Administration built the retaining wall in 1936 to protect the slope from erosion.
