This may be a bit long but if you are planning to come to Lake Bob Sandlin, or just an East Texas getaway, this post is for you.I lived on Bob Sandlin for many years and I watched Barefoot Bay change hands many MANY times over the years, and only to be less impressed as the years went by--UNTIL NOW!

Al, aka the owner, has done what no other owner could do. This place is amazing! For me, it's something to be proud of. Finally, someone with a vision of "what could be" and the tenacity (and lots of money) to make it happen. If you are looking for a safe, clean, well kept place to enjoy the weekend in your rv, or rent a cabin, this is the nicest place East of Dallas. They have a fully stocked store for anything you forgot, including fishing supplies. Also, a great on-site restaurant called Castaways, with a full bar and a room for shooting pool and playing video games. Gasoline, diesel and propane are also on-site as well as boats to rent. If you find something nicer in East Texas, please let me know. But for now, my money's on Big Al's Barefoot Bay!
