Summer in Southwest Louisiana means one thing: it’s time to get out on the water. And if you haven’t spent a weekend at Bundick Lake yet, you’re missing one of the most peaceful, scenic destinations in the entire region. Whether you’re casting a line at sunrise, paddling across glassy water in the afternoon, or gathering your group around a fire after dark, Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park in DeRidder, LA is the perfect home base for your summer adventure.
Located at 430 Milton Reid Rd, DeRidder, LA 70634, this lakefront RV park and retreat destination offers full hookup RV sites, cozy motel-style cabins, and a bunk house that sleeps up to 25 — making it ideal for solo travelers, families, and large group retreats alike. With Memorial Day behind us and the full summer season ahead, now is the perfect time to book your stay and experience everything Bundick Lake has to offer.
Tucked away in Beauregard Parish, Bundick Lake is a serene, natural retreat that draws anglers, outdoor enthusiasts, and families looking to escape the noise of everyday life. The lake’s calm waters, wooded surroundings, and quiet atmosphere make it a standout destination in a region better known for its casinos and coastal beaches.
Unlike the crowded campgrounds near Lake Charles or the busy RV parks along the Gulf Coast, Bundick Lake offers a destination-style experience — a place where you actually slow down, breathe in the pine-scented air, and reconnect with the people you came with. It’s the kind of place that keeps guests coming back summer after summer.
Fishing is the number one draw for summer visitors to Bundick Lake, and for good reason. The lake is home to a variety of freshwater species, and the calm, shaded banks around the property make for an ideal morning or evening fishing session. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or teaching the kids to cast for the first time, the lake access directly on the Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park property means you’re never more than a short walk from the water.
Tips for fishing at Bundick Lake this summer:
The calm, scenic waters of Bundick Lake are perfect for kayaking and paddleboarding. Gliding across the lake in the early morning — with mist still rising off the water and birds calling from the tree line — is one of those experiences that reminds you why you travel in the first place.
Bring your own kayak or canoe and take advantage of the lake access available directly on the property. The peaceful, unhurried atmosphere at Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park means you’ll have plenty of room to explore without the crowds you’d find at more commercial recreation areas.

The park’s quiet, controlled environment and enforced quiet hours mean you’ll enjoy a genuinely peaceful outdoor experience — not the chaotic, noisy atmosphere you sometimes find at larger commercial campgrounds.
