Arbor Hills is not even close to hidden cove... Arbor hills is a 250 acre park W/ no camping on the west edge of Plano south of 121 and the Dallas Tollway... It's on Parker..west 1 1/2 miles... It is really pretty though.....

White Rock Creek
Not a bad run, a little shallow in places though. Take out point requires dragging boat up a steep incline. Also there are lots of man made obstacles to avoid, sever man hole covers protruding from the bottom. There are also 2 manmade water falls that will sneak up on you....

Take springcreek from jupiter and keep going till it merges with rowlett creek and get out at rowlett rd. This entire stretch of water is best after rainstorms. Some areas have high speed runs and have great rapids. Go prepared you will get wet....

Rowlett Creek
14 miles away
...t sort of remind me of parts of the Guadalupe.  We have put in where the creek crosses Ben Davis Rd. behind the Firewheel Mall before.  The stretch between Lavon Dr./78 and Pleasant Valley Rd. is where you will find the ''whitewater'' including the 3-4 foot drop with optional ''easy way'' to the side.  We continued down past Rowlett Rd. and 66 and took out @ Miller Rd. where you usually see people fishing on either side of the street.  This strech of river is still flowing but as far scenery it is only trees, cyclists on the bike trails, and an old railroad bridge.  You do pass a gun range (right at Pleasant Valley) and the water treatment plant (right after 66) both with their own unique sounds and SMELLS.  We have gone all the way to Lake Ray Hubbard before but the stretch between Miller Rd. and the Lake is pretty boring and there is not much flow in the creek at that point.  Travel time for us from Campbell Rd. to Miller Rd. was about 6 hours but we took our time, stopped for a packed lunch, and fished some along the way.  Travel time from Ben Davis Rd. all the way to Lake Ray Hub...
