If you’re traveling by RV this Memorial Day, Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park offers 17 full hookup RV sites with everything you need for a comfortable long weekend stay. Each site includes:
The park’s open, scenic layout gives RV guests plenty of breathing room while keeping the atmosphere quiet and controlled — a welcome contrast to the packed-in, shoulder-to-shoulder conditions you’ll find at many RV parks over Memorial Day weekend. Quiet hours are enforced, so you can actually rest and recharge during your holiday getaway.
Please note that RVs 10 years or older require prior approval. Simply submit an exterior photo of your rig when booking and the team will confirm your reservation promptly. This policy helps maintain the park’s clean, well-kept appearance for all guests.
Bringing the four-legged family members along? No problem. Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park is a pet friendly RV park — up to 2 pets per reservation are welcome. Just follow the posted park rules and enjoy the wide open outdoor spaces with your pets by your side.
Not an RV traveler? The park’s 8 motel-style cabins are an outstanding option for families, couples, and small groups who want the full lake retreat experience with the comfort of a private room. Each cabin includes:
The cabins are designed for comfort and convenience, giving guests a true home-away-from-home feel while being steps away from the lake, fishing spots, and all the outdoor recreation the property has to offer.

For anglers, fishing at Bundick Lake is one of the top draws of a stay at Bundick Lake Retreat & RV Park. The lake is a well-regarded fishing destination in Beauregard Parish, and late May is one of the best times of year to wet a line. Warm water temperatures activate feeding patterns, and the long Memorial Day weekend gives you multiple days to work the lake at your own pace.
Whether you’re a seasoned tournament angler or a parent teaching the kids to fish for the first time, Bundick Lake delivers a genuine, unhurried fishing experience that’s increasingly rare on a holiday weekend.
Beyond fishing, the calm waters of Bundick Lake are ideal for kayaking in DeRidder and other paddle sports. The lake’s relatively quiet, non-motorized-friendly environment makes it a great spot for:
For families with kids, the combination of fishing, paddling, and open outdoor space makes for a Memorial Day weekend that’s genuinely screen-free and memorable. This is the kind of outdoor recreation that southwest Louisiana does better than almost anywhere else.
