Sandy Creek

About

Sandy Creek Park sits on the southeast side of B.A. Steinhagen Lake in the heart of the East Texas Pineywoods. Managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, this well-developed campground provides 71 campsites with water and electric hookups (30 and 50 amp service), along with tent-only sites and group camping options. Facilities include flush and vault toilets, hot showers, and a dump station. Each site features a paved driveway, picnic table, and fire ring. B.A. Steinhagen Lake is a prime destination for fishing, with largemouth bass, catfish, and crappie as the primary sport species. The park has boat ramps, fishing docks, and boat rentals available nearby. The road system within the park offers excellent family biking opportunities for 3-5 mile rides, and campers can enjoy the volleyball court and children's playground. The surrounding landscape features pine uplands, bottomland hardwoods, and mixed pine-hardwood forests that support white-tailed deer, squirrels, red and gray fox, Bobwhite quail, and numerous waterfowl species. Nearby Martin Dies Jr. State Park and the Angelina-Neches/Dam B Wildlife Management Area provide additional recreation opportunities.
