Host Your Special Event at Butch’s Hideaway RV Park
Imagine celebrating life’s most meaningful moments with the backdrop of shimmering lake views, towering palms, and the peaceful atmosphere of Florida’s untouched countryside. At Butch’s Hideaway RV Park, we offer more than just scenic views and comfortable accommodations—we provide an unforgettable outdoor venue for weddings, family reunions, birthday celebrations, anniversaries, and corporate retreats. Whether you envision a lakeside wedding at sunset or a relaxed weekend gathering with loved ones, our unique setting offers everything you need to make your event special.
Tucked along the shores of Lake Rosalie in Lake Wales, Florida, our private gated park combines natural beauty with thoughtful amenities, creating the perfect blend of elegance and ease for outdoor events of all kinds.
A Natural Lakeside Venue Unlike Any Other
The most striking feature of our venue is the environment itself. Events take place under a canopy of moss-draped oaks and swaying palm trees, with Lake Rosalie sparkling in the background. Our park is beautifully landscaped yet intentionally rustic, keeping the natural surroundings in full view.
Ceremonies can be held by the dock, under the trees, or in an open grass area ideal for tents or outdoor seating. Receptions and gatherings benefit from our existing infrastructure, including community seating areas, a BBQ zone, and ambient lighting that complements the mood rather than overpowering it.
Sunsets over the lake provide stunning photo opportunities and a serene, magical atmosphere that adds meaning and beauty to every celebration.
