We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Lake. The campground was lovely and the campsites are spaced out nicely.

We have been coming to Big Sandy Corp of Engineer campground for years and love it. The lake is so beautiful. The past few years the weeds have overgrown the marinas so you can't get your boats in and out and the docs are overtaken by the weeds. Now this year for the first time the lake was green and had smelly algae blooms. All the years we have been going there with water levels high, low never green water. It is disheartening to see. Not sure if the DNR is doing something our should be. in MN lakes are our most valuable resource.
Tammy and Wayne the hosts are the best. So freindly and helpful. The campground is nice.

Our reservation was for the South Entrance but found it difficult to back in with our 19 ft. travel trailer due to the tight conditions. There was only 10 ft. or less between the other trailers and you had to park perpendicular with our vehicle once the trailer was placed. The other sites by us had the same setup so it created harder access to each campsite. We had to wait until a neighboring campsite moved their parked truck to get hooked back up to leave!
No biking or hiking trails at the campgrounds; basically boating/fishing is the only recreation besides the usual outside grilling (bring your own) and campfire.
Next time we will definitely go to the North Entrance campground; lots of room for each camper and lots of shade!

It's a nice quiet park. Bathrooms are very clean, however the shower heads need to be changed out.

Very peaceful campground, but being able to keep our boat in the water instead of taking it in and out every day was the best! Definitely will camp there again in the future.
