Sandy Lake MH & RV Resort

John Gardner

The gentleman I’ve dealt with at the front desk on two occasions was rude and condescending to me on two consecutive occasions. The first incident was when I was attempting rent my 3rd space at this location and the other was when I was simply trying to get some quarters. The tone and attitude overall is not what I expect or tolerate as I do expect to be talked to and treated like an adult, which I was not. I’ll go somewhere else where my business is appreciated.

At this community, management fails to uphold fairness or professionalism, enforcing rules and shared space access in biased and retaliatory ways. The office acts unaccountable, shifting policies based on favoritism, while staff gossip openly about residents’ private issues, even mental health, both past and present. I witnessed this firsthand, including staff celebrating when a troubled resident was leaving, and I have also seen staff or those close to them break rules openly, including drug use, without accountability. Public amenities and the dog park are neglected, often dirty and full of dog poop, while other spaces, doors, gravel areas, and awnings are ignored. Instead of clean and welcoming surroundings, residents face declining amenities, unfair treatment, and gossip at the office. These thoughts come from a place of long-term connection and care. After several years of living here, I share this in hopes of contributing to a stronger, more open community. It’s not about looking for a way out, but about honoring the reasons people choose to stay. 🫂 Update, in response to management’s reply: This is not a personal dispute — and framing it that way is both dismissive and inaccurate. The concerns raised in my original review focus on observable patterns of exclusion, inconsistent application of community guidelines, and how authority is exercised in ways that affect resident access and participation. These are not personal matters — they are issues of leadership standards, community cohesion, and resident trust. Attempts to reduce this to a neighborly disagreement overlook the substance of the feedback: when residents raise thoughtful concerns, the response is often to deflect or marginalize rather than address the issue directly. That kind of approach discourages open dialogue and sends a message that raising concerns may result in social or procedural consequences. This review was written in support of transparency, equitable treatment, and consistent access to shared resources — not in reaction to any personal history. When inclusion in a residential community appears conditional on compliance or silence, it signals a need for deeper reflection on how leadership impacts the overall environment.

I'm putting a three star review just for MY experience. Yours may or may not be different. First of all, the area of the rv park is great, it's around many nice businesses and about 15-20 minutes from dallas(fun). The people here are okay, and the amenities are worth the priceish. I stayed here for only a couple of weeks and let me tell you, people here HATE/are allergic to picking up their dog poop. Not that many people drive the recommended speed limit so if you have little kids or like to walk just be wary. The rv park is less of a resort and more like a suburban neighborhood with rvs, modular and tiny homes. The dumpsters are pretty far away and there really isn't much grass for your dog to use the bathroom on walks or any sidewalks to walk on. The spots for the rvs are really tiny. Like, you're in your neighbors yard once you step out the front door tiny. No space for really any long term outdoor items unless you're really close to your neighbor. The park is quiet and people are either friendly or keep to themselves which is great 👍. Also, the time I was there it was clean enough and didn't seem dirty outside or any of the facilities, just the dog poo. Not the best rv park I stayed at but not the absolute worst.

Veronica was cool, calm and friendly with an office full of people wanting her assistance when we arrived. She handled everyone with respect and efficiency. This campground has easy access to businesses and highways 35 and 635.
