Cabins & Lodges

Come out to Camp Lakewood and enjoy the views of Lake Pauline plus all the creature comforts. RV parking, cabin rentals and tent sites are all available for rent.

Camp Lakewood is an RV campground located on the shores of Lake Pauline, which is a perfect spot to kayak, canoe, or fish--even without a fishing license! The sites include cable, WiFi, and 30/50 AMP hookups. They also offer one- and two-bedroom cottages that are fully furnished and self contained, including a fire pit and picnic table. The newest cabin sleeps five and includes cable TV. They do offer tent sites as well for those who want to be a little closer to nature. Stop by their lounge to enjoy video gaming, pool and darts, food, and adult beverages. Their camp store offers groceries, camping and fishing supplies, souvenirs, and row boat and canoe rentals. Kids can enjoy an on-site playground and recreational field that overlooks the lake. A community gas grill is centrally located for all guests to use. It also provides a propane dispensing station and dump station for your waste disposal needs. Camp Lakewood has all your outdoor getaway needs.
