Summer in Southwest Louisiana is something special. The mornings are cool enough to cast a line before the sun climbs high, the evenings are made for sitting lakeside with a cold drink, and the whole region buzzes with festivals, outdoor adventures, and the kind of slow-down energy that road-trippers and outdoor lovers chase all year long. If you’re looking for the best base camp for fishing and outdoor recreation near DeRidder, LA, look no further than Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park — a peaceful, scenic lakefront property built for exactly this kind of summer.
Whether you’re rolling in with a fifth wheel, booking a cabin for the weekend, or organizing a group retreat for 20-plus people, Bundick Lake Retreat has the space, the amenities, and the setting to make your summer trip one you’ll talk about until next season.
Bundick Lake sits in the heart of Beauregard Parish, just outside DeRidder, Louisiana — a region that doesn’t always make the top of travel lists but absolutely should. The lake and surrounding area offer some of the most accessible and rewarding freshwater fishing in Southwest Louisiana, and summer is prime time for bass, catfish, and bream. Add in kayaking, wildlife watching, and the wide-open skies of the Kisatchie National Forest nearby, and you’ve got a full outdoor itinerary without ever needing to drive more than a few miles.
Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park sits right on the water, giving guests direct lake access from the property. You don’t have to haul your gear to a public boat ramp or fight for a fishing spot — just walk out from your site or cabin and get after it.
Bring your own gear or pick up supplies at local bait shops in DeRidder before you arrive. Louisiana fishing licenses are required and available online through the Louisiana Department of Wildlife & Fisheries.
One of the things that sets Bundick Lake Retreat apart from a typical campground is the variety of lodging options available. This isn’t just an RV park — it’s a full-service retreat destination with accommodations for solo travelers, couples, families, and large groups.
Bundick Lake Retreat offers 17 full hookup RV sites with both 50 amp and 30 amp power, plus individual water and sewer connections at every site. Electricity, water, sewer, WiFi, and trash service are all included. The open, scenic layout gives you room to breathe — no cramped sites or tight turns. Whether you’re in a travel trailer, fifth wheel, or Class A motorhome, you’ll find a comfortable spot with everything you need to settle in for a night, a week, or longer.
Not an RV traveler? No problem. Bundick Lake Retreat has 8 motel-style cabins, each equipped with:
The cabins are ideal for couples, small families, or anyone who wants the lakefront experience without the RV. They’re clean, comfortable, and climate-controlled — perfect for those hot Louisiana summer nights.
Planning a church retreat, youth camp, family reunion, or team-building event? The Bunk House at Bundick Lake Retreat sleeps up to 25 people and includes access to a commercial-style kitchen.

Whether you’re organizing a weekend retreat or a multi-day event, the Bunk House gives you the infrastructure to pull it off without the logistics headache of booking multiple hotel rooms across town.
