Yes, I believe that there is (was?) an arrastre at Arrastre Spring. 2 years ago we visited the site, but initially we couldn't find it. Then we pulled out some loppers and started hacking into the underbrush around the spring. We did find what appeared to be the base of an arrastre: flat stones in a cirlce about 10 feet in diameter. It was covered with mud and a few inches of water, which we cleared away. We found it about 50 feet into the underbrush. It didn't have a center post or any other center structure, so its hard to say conclusively that it was an arrastre.
