Little Sandy Campground — Lake Thunderbird State Park

30 amp, water, fire pit,and grill

Spacious campground with other campground in the area. Like Thunderbird, or Dirtybird as the locals call it gets a lot if use. Time to rebuild the horrible bathroom by the lake. Roads need to be replaced or major patching. Some campsites are very close to each other while others have good spacing. Stayed in one 30 amp RV site with water but no sweet. Dump station is well maintained. Concrete pads for RV’s blots if tent spaces but the bathrooms would spoil the fun. Price was tight for $25-$26 per night including power. Bugs , skunks, possum l, and 3 kinds of poisonous snakes. Though it was too cold for snakes. I’m from the Northwest so not used to these critters.

Great quiet out of the way place.... during the week... weekends get a bit busy!!

Sites are well spaced apart and pretty level. Most have electric and water with a central located dump station near by.

Plenty of fishing to be had at the lake... hiking and biking also in area..

Typical state park. Was good for the value but will say the staff at the main office were very helpful! They saw to it that curfew was enforced!!!! COVID was is in place and staff saw to it that the state stds. were followed.

Avid tent camper here, camped from California to South Carolina. Wanted to spend the weekend close to home. And honestly just embarrassed to be from Oklahoma City with the way Thunderbird was. Stayed at Little Sandy 17. First every campsite we reserved had people on them so we had to kick people off multiple sites so we could set up. The bathrooms were a disgrace. Even after being “cleaned”. Will never go back to this place.

Hadn't been to Lake Thunderbird since I was a kid (40+ years ago) and all I could remember is that we always called it Lake Dirtybird because of the water. As far as that is concerned nothing has really changed. Typical central Oklahoma red water. 

We stayed a couple of nights at Little Sandy Campground. There weren't any full hookups and we had to stay at a spot that was water and electric only ... and boy were we glad. The full hookup sites in the next campground over -- Hickory Hill -- were packed in like sardines. Our site on the upper loop of Little Sandy was away from all the hubub but also away from the water, so there was that. If you don't mind being right up against the next camper, Hickory Hill has some full hookup sites right on the water. However, the upper loop of Little Sandy was nice with all the trees and the better-spaced sites. In my opinion spot 36 is the best one. No one can camp behind you and there's a lot of space to the south. The dump site it up on the main road about a quarter of mile north from the campground entrance and easily accessible.
We stayed the first weekend of May 2020 ... the first weekend some of the COVID-19 restrictions were lifted. The place was PACKED, especially with tent campers. No judgment, just saying there were a lot of them. It was tough finding a path to the water without walking through someone's campsite. The water pressure was pretty low at the site and my guess it was due to all the sites being in use.
All in all it was a nice weekend, but I've stayed at nicer and quieter places.
