Summer is also prime time for group gatherings. Family reunions, church camps, youth retreats, and corporate team-building events all find a natural home at Bundick Lake Retreat, thanks to the park’s unique combination of RV sites, private cabins, a large bunk house, and a commercial-style kitchen. There’s simply no other property in the DeRidder area that can accommodate a group of 25+ people under one roof while also hosting RV travelers on the same grounds.
Bundick Lake Retreat offers 17 full hookup RV sites — each equipped with individual water, sewer, and power connections. Both 50 amp and 30 amp service are available, accommodating everything from compact travel trailers to large Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels.
