Within a walk of the street are older houses and a handful of newer apartments. - **Grapevine Main Station**: Grapevine Main is the TEXRail station at the south end of Main Street, next to Hotel Vin and the Grapevine Vintage Railroad. The train runs to DFW Airport and downtown Fort Worth, and apartments within walking distance put you near the station plaza. - **William D. Tate Corridor**: William D. Tate Avenue runs north and south through the middle of Grapevine, from SH-114 to SH-360. Shopping centers and several garden apartment communities line it, with quick access to both highways. - **SH-114 Corridor**: SH-114 crosses Grapevine and shares the DFW Connector interchange with SH-121 at the airport's north entry. Newer apartments sit near the highway, the route to DFW Airport, Southlake and Irving. - **SH-121 Corridor**: On Grapevine's east side, SH-121 splits toward Lewisville and Coppell. Apartments near it are close to Grapevine Mills and the airport's north entry, and the interchange traffic can be heavy. - **Northwest Highway**: Northwest Highway runs east and west through Grapevine, crossing Main Street near downtown. Older garden apartments and strip centers line it, and it ties into SH-114 and SH-121 on the east side of town. - **Grapevine Lake Vicinity**: Grapevine Lake sits on the city's north side, with marinas, parks and the Northshore Trail along the shore. Near it you'll find mostly houses and some newer apartments, and the lake trails are close enough for an evening walk or ride. ## Grapevine Apartments Wrapped Around DFW Airport - Payback terms on the SH-114 and SH-121 specials, to get in writing up front - TEXRail from Grapevine Main Station weighed if you'd rather ride to the airport or Fort Worth - December crowds near Main Street and flight paths over the southeast side brought up before you commit ## Highways, TEXRail and the Holiday Rush SH-114 crosses the middle of town, east to Irving and Las Colinas and west to Southlake. SH-121 runs northeast past Coppell to Lewisville, where it becomes the Sam Rayburn Tollway, and south through Euless toward Fort Worth. SH-360 ends at the two of them along the airport's west side. TEXRail is the train almost no listing mentions. It runs from downtown Fort Worth through Grapevine Main Station to DFW Airport Terminal B, on a set schedule rather than every few minutes. Airport noise is the other thing listings leave out. The southeast side hears it most. A unit that's quiet at a weekday morning tour can be loud on a busy weekend. From late November into early January, Grapevine's holiday season packs Main Street and the streets around it, and ICE! weekends jam the lake side near the Gaylord Texan. If you see a place in the fall, go back in December. ## Four Kinds of Rentals in Grapevine First up are the newer buildings along SH-114, SH-121 and near the Main Station district. They have the biggest specials, which you usually pay back if you break the lease, and they screen strictly. The older garden communities on William D. Tate Avenue and Northwest Highway follow formal rules but ask for less. With solid income and a bruised record, a guarantor company or bigger deposit gets you further there. Furnished and extended stay units, in demand near the airport and the lake resorts, cost well above unfurnished ones, so get the rate and start date on paper. Townhomes in older subdivisions fill out the middle price range. ## Living in Grapevine Grapevine packs a historic Main Street, a big lake, an outlet mall and a resort into one small city by DFW Airport. Festivals fill the calendar from May through New Year's. ### Close to the airport and everything else At 8am, it's about 13 minutes to DFW Airport by our count, 25 to Legacy West, 27 to the Medical District and 32 to Downtown Dallas. Main Street is walkable end to end. The Grapevine Vintage Railroad leaves from the Cotton Belt depot on old style train rides to the Fort Worth Stockyards, a fun way to show visitors around. - **Grapevine Vintage Railroad** (heritage railroad): Book a weekend ride to the Fort Worth Stockyards when friends visit; the depot is at the south end of Main Street. ### Grapevine Lake Grapevine Lake covers the city's north side, with marinas, boat ramps and lake parks. The Northshore Trail runs along the shore, a favorite of mountain bikers and trail runners. It's dirt, so wet days are a poor pick for a ride. - **Grapevine Lake** (lake): Rent a boat or pick a shady place on the shore on a summer weekday, when the ramps and parks are far less crowded than weekends. - **Northshore Trail** (trail): Ride or run it on a dry fall morning; it's dirt, so skip it for a day or two after rain. ### Main Street dining and tasting rooms Historic Main Street has most of the city's restaurants, patios and wine tasting rooms in old brick storefronts, a short walk from Grapevine Main station. Weeknights are relaxed; festival weekends and December evenings are packed, so plan ahead for a table. - **Historic Main Street Grapevine** (dining street): Walk Main Street for dinner and a wine tasting on a weeknight, when tables and parking are easy to find. ### Outlet mall and groceries Grapevine Mills on the north side is a big outlet mall. Inside are a LEGOLAND Discovery Center, the SEA LIFE aquarium with a 360 degree ocean tunnel, a dine in movie theater and Round 1 for bowling and arcade games. For groceries, there's a Tom Thumb on South Park Boulevard, and Kroger stores sit just west in Southlake. - **Grapevine Mills** (shopping center): Shop the outlets on a weekday morning, or spend a hot afternoon at the aquarium and the movies inside. ### A year of festivals Main Street Fest opens the season in May, and GrapeFest, the big wine festival, fills Main Street in September. The Gaylord Texan's ICE! show runs from mid November into early January, alongside Main Street's Christmas season. - **Gaylord Texan Resort** (resort): Go for ICE! on a weeknight in November, before the holiday crowds, and buy timed tickets online. - **GrapeFest** (festival): Go on the Thursday of GrapeFest week, when admission has been free, and walk in instead of hunting for parking. ### What we tell renters here GrapeFest and Main Street Fest close Main Street and fill nearby lots for whole weekends. If you live downtown, keep moves and big deliveries off those dates. ICE! weekends bring heavy traffic near the Gaylord Texan on the lake side of town from mid November into early January. Airport noise changes with the wind, so visit a unit more than once. ## Grapevine questions Does TEXRail stop in Grapevine? Yes, at Grapevine Main Station, with trains east to DFW Airport Terminal B and west to downtown Fort Worth. It runs on a set schedule, so check the times before you build a commute around it. How busy does Main Street get in December? Very. Grapevine is the official Christmas Capital of Texas. It draws holiday crowds from late November through early January, and the old downtown streets weren't built for that traffic. Visit any place near Main Street in December if you can. Which Grapevine addresses hear the planes most? It shifts with the runways DFW is using, but the southeast side next to the airport gets the most. Listen at different times, including a weekend, before you sign. Why do furnished units in Grapevine cost so much? Demand from airline crews, airport contracts and the lake resorts keeps the extra cost high, and it varies by company. Ask for the monthly rate, a rate lock and your start date in writing. Which county and school district is my Grapevine address in? Mostly Tarrant County, with parts in Dallas and Denton counties, and the county sets your tax rate. Grapevine-Colleyville ISD serves most addresses, Carroll ISD some near Southlake and Lewisville ISD a small part. Look up both for the street. Where in Grapevine is screening easiest? Along William D. Tate Avenue, where the older garden communities set a lower bar than the SH-114 and SH-121 buildings. Coppell, Flower Mound and Irving add more choices. Grapevine one bedrooms currently go for about $1,305 after free rent. What's the catch with the SH-114 and SH-121 specials? Usually a payback rule: leave early and you repay the free months. The terms tend to sit in an extra page of the lease. See our [specials guide](/move-in-specials/) for the math. Is there an apartment locator near Grapevine? Yes. Around Grapevine we check this month's offers at the newest SH-114 buildings every week and look up screening at the Tate Avenue garden communities. Ask each building for its payback terms, and ask the furnished rental companies for written rates. ## Near Grapevine Coppell sits just east across SH-121, Flower Mound lies north past the lake, and Las Colinas is a short SH-114 drive southeast. ### Las Colinas Las Colinas Urban Center · Lake Carolyn · Mandalay Canal [Las Colinas →](/neighborhoods/las-colinas/) ### Coppell Old Town Coppell · Denton Tap Road · MacArthur Boulevard [Coppell →](/neighborhoods/coppell/) ### Flower Mound Lakeside DFW · Long Prairie Corridor · Morriss Road Corridor [Flower Mound →](/neighborhoods/flower-mound/) ## Looking in Grapevine?
