Lake Bob Sandlin Offers Many Outdoor Activities
Lake Bob Sandlin is a 9400 acre lake located in East Texas. The State Park covers 639 acres of wooded terrain along the shore of the lake. This land was originally settled by the Caddoan people from as early as 200 B.C. to the 1700’s.
During the French and Spanish explored the area and built relationships with the Caddo, Choctaw, Cherokee, and Kickapoo Native Americans in the late 18th to early 19th century. Today the area is mainly used for farming, ranching, and recreation.
Outdoor activities like hiking, mountain biking, and camping are popular things to do at the state park. Boating, fishing, water skiing, and wake boarding are popular activities on the water. Lake Bob Sandlin has an abundant population of fish including largemouth bass, catfish, and crappie.
