It’s turtle nesting season
One of the places we’ve spotted buried turtle eggs is in the flower bed right outside the recreation hall front door. This area, and any other places where turtles are nesting, will be marked and cordoned off. Please do not disturb these areas…and please stay out of all the flower beds in the park.

Pool & Hot Tub Renovation starts Tuesday May 28th
The pool and hot tub have been in operation for many years with only minor repairs. We’ve recently had some leaks, and the pool concrete is starting to flake off. Major renovation will involve draining the pool & hot tub and acid washing and completely refinishing all surfaces to make everything “good as new”. Renovation typically takes 4-6 weeks, so it is anticipated the pool and hot tub will be closed at least during all of June.

A Naturist Women’s Rendezvous – Celebrate the Freedom

As naturist women, we experience the empowering quality of being accepted just as we are. This is an opportunity to rendezvous with other women who understand exactly what that means. We have planned workshops and playshops each day with plenty of time in the schedule to socialize and enjoy the amenities of the resort. Give yourself a weekend treat, You deserve it. Bring a girlfriend along to share the experience.
