About
Sandy Park Campground is a small, quiet campground located directly below the Kaw Lake Dam in Osage County, Oklahoma. Managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the campground offers 12 sites with electric hookups in a wooded setting that provides both sunny and shaded camping options. Each site can accommodate one tent and one camper, or two tents. The campground features modern amenities including flush toilets, drinking water, and showers. A boat ramp provides easy access to the Arkansas River for fishing and boating. The area is popular with hikers using the 12-mile Eagle View Hiking Trail between Osage Cove and Burbank Landing, as well as equestrians on the Five Fingers Equestrian Trail. Kaw Lake is renowned for wildlife viewing, particularly during winter when migrating bald eagles congregate in one of Oklahoma's largest populations. Hunters find excellent opportunities for whitetail deer, turkey, quail, rabbit, and squirrel. Nearby attractions include Native American historical sites and the Pioneer Woman Museum.
