Hillside View RV Retreat was created by Jimmy and Sheryl McDonald as a peaceful place to slow down and enjoy the beauty of East Texas. Whether they're spending time at the retreat, exploring Caddo Lake, or simply enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, their love for this region inspired them to create a place where others can experience the same sense of peace and relaxation. While Hillside View is their home away from home, dedicated on-site caretakers are here to welcome guests and help make every stay comfortable and enjoyable.
