We recently stayed at Sunny Rest for the first time over the weekend, staying at one of the newer RV sites (D34). This was among 5 sites that were in the process of being added, where the back of the sites was all loose dirt where electric, water and sewage had just been added. Made for limited outdoor space and kind of a mess with all the recent rain.

Having said that, we were fortunate to be able to get a site as this place is very popular, with a lot of seasonal people with established sites and limited RV and tent sites offered throughout. Those established locations were grassy and generally pretty nice.

The people at the resort were all very friendly and welcoming, saying hi and chatting with you. Likewise with the staff, overall very welcoming.

The atmosphere is pretty casual, while clothing optional, you really only are expected to be undressed at the pool or hot tub and it feels completely natural. You will also see people walking around naked, topless or partially clothed - no pressure or judgement.

The food at the grill is really great! Was a little disappointed with the fare at Irv’s bistro. Drinks at the bar at expensive but also very good. They had open mic/karaoke on Friday night and a terrific band on Saturday, both out on the pool deck. That was a lot of fun!

All in all, a great time and we are looking forward to going back.

Tips:
- bring lots of sun screen, obviously
- comfortable shoes to walk in (golf carts are ideal), you will do a lot of walking depending on where you are
- bugs are not that bad but are around, so repellent of some kind
- not a lot of fire wood around, bring this with you

We had an amazing time. This is one of, if not the best run naked fun place we’ve visited. The locals were really friendly and inviting. The activities, and high energy vibe was amazing. I highly recommend.

Omg did you know that this place is a nudist resort?! Great music with Mark. Fun activities all weekend long! If you like Pokémon it’s lousy with them here! The Tennis on Saturdays and Sundays is fabulous, and the players are very welcoming. You can camp or pull in your RV or rent one of the hotel rooms.
