My Little Slice of Heaven on Earth
After my first visit to my first Clothing Optional resort, I was hooked. I became a Gold Member after my first visit. I love going to Laguna. My experiences have been fun, the people I have met have been nothing but friendly to me. Those at the front desk are gracious and welcoming.
It is definately worth the money. The initiation fee (1/2 price special in March) is no more than one would pay for a gym membership initiaion fee. Between National membership and a Gold membership, I am paying basically $1.00 a day for pure heaven. I cannot afford to save up for a huge two week vacation a year and all the costs involved, but I can go on weekly mini vacations. To relax in an atmosphere like this is truly beneficial towards one's mental health and quality of life. It is outstanding.
I have access to an indoor pool, indoor hot tub, outdoor pool, outdoor hot tub and conversation pool. Billiards, laundry facility, lake, fishing, lounging, relaxing and the dances (many themed) on Friday and Saturday nights are just wonderful. The friendships I have been cultivating are ones that will last for many years to come and my fellow members make each visit worthwhile. Because I am a Gold member, if I would like to camp there, it is VERY reasonable.
My weekly vacation (If I'm not headed to Reno or San Francisco) begins at 3:30pm on Friday and ends on 6:30am on Monday. When I get there, I remove the confines of society (clothes) and don my sarong. It's so freeing when you realize, when you get comfortable and remove your clothes, how normal you truly are. You learn to accept your body, no matter what size or shape you are, and you find others there accept you as you are too.
Also, when you are in your natural state, there has to be a level of trust in order to do that. At Laguna, there is an unspoken level of trust, and as a single woman, I feel safe there.
Having the freedom to be a naturalist is truly freedom indeed. I will continue my membership year after year.
