It’s a great spot to camp.” Barefoot Bay received the Park of the Year Award in the medium size park category last week during TACO’s annual spring meeting. Located on 9,000-acre Lake Bob Sandlin about two hours east of Dallas, Barefoot Bay has 80 RV sites and 40 boat slips that can accommodate everything from pontoon boats to sailboats up to 25 feet in length. The wooded resort also has some of the finest campground rental accommodations in Texas.
