We are a very liberal nudist club for adults located in the Huntington/Charleston West Virginia area. We serve Eastern Kentucky, Southern Ohio and all of West Virginia. Our club tries to combine the best features of a traditional nudist club and a swinger's club. If you have visited traditional nudist clubs you know how comfortable and relaxing being totally naked in a mixed group can be. However, it's easy to be frustrated by the needless rules and regulations.
