Spent a nice August mid-week day at this place with the thought that we'd return with our RV if we liked it and felt comfortable. They have several rental cabins which looked nice but we did not inspect them or stay here so can't rate the accommodations per se. Given that, the place is a lot more upscale than we expected, glad we went, nice chance to hang out/in the warm pool and relax. Almost had it to ourselves on a Wednesday! Better than average facilities for a clothing optional place (nudity not required). Bathrooms were super clean, well-stocked store. Friendly owners, gave us a tour to start the day while explaining all the cleaning they do in the facilities and rental cabins. Really nice RV sites and rigs. They place is over-21 only, not AANR members but we experienced no bother at all about the adult aspect, maybe due to it being a Wednesday. Imagine the weekends are "rowdier", she said the place was packed last weekend when they have free beer and a cookout. Will not be our last weekday visit. $40 day fee per couple.

This is the most friendly and super clean camp ground. 3 weekday nights in one of their newly renovated rentals, wasn’t long enough. Totally relaxing. Owners where amazing host! Their store has everything you will need at reasonable prices. We can’t wait to return.

Wife and I just visited NorthHaven resort this past weekend and had a fabulous weekend. New owners are fabulous and the grounds were very well kept up. If you want a place to let your hair down and enjoy the feeling of being nude this place is for you. Cost I feel was pretty reasonable. Wife a I will be going back for another visit when this COVID crap is over. Great place to visit.

This place is for the old , and horny swingers. We felt out of place. Most of the people there were in groups. I guess they have known eachother for quite sometime. The place was clean, and the dance hall could use an upgrade, which had a old car seat in it in one area. If your body isn't that great they will only carry a brief welcome. Those who were new that had nice bodies they were all over them, inviting them to the after party.

My wife and I visited the resort for the first time in August 2015. The event was the pirate boat race and the resort was full. Rather than turn us away, Velma said bring your tent and we will find a spot for you. Soon after we received a call back from Velma. She said; we have a tent available if you would like it. During registration there was an announcement for a volleyball game that was about to begin, which also brought us to northaven. Check in was quick and we were able to start playing. Our tent was bran new with an air mattress ,sheets ,blankets and pillows set up adjacent to a picnic table, patio at the pond! We were greeted with many friendly people who showed us around the resort. Larry also gave us a tour and the events of the day were outstanding. Waking up early morning textile free overlooking the pond removed any stress that was left. When thinking that a coffee would be nice, my neighbor asked if I would like one and she brought one over. There are outdoor showers around the resort that are good and as hot as you would like. The main showers are large individual enclosures with full ceramic tile. The owners Larry and Velma are on site and available which keeps the resort under control. This has created a unique culture to connect with people without the barrier of clothing in a non sexual way. We are planning another visit to the resort in July 2016 Marty and Dawn

We recently visited Northaven for the second time. It was awesome once again. The following are the highlights: check-in was fast, efficient; friendly people all around; we were lucky to be there for the Chili competition, so there was enough excellent (free) food for everyone on the Saturday afternoon (18 crockpots of different kinds of Chili), a very entertaining dance on the Saturday night. We took accommodation in one of the "suites", unfortunately the toilet broke on Sunday morning, but very promptly, within the hour it had already been fixed! Accommodations were very clean. All in all a very pleasant, excellent, superb stay. A phenomenal place to re-connect with your significant other. Worth the 483 km drive!

My wife and I stayed recently at Northaven for 2 nights. The check-in was quick, expedite and uneventful. The rental unit was very clean, fully equiped and functional as offered. The grounds are very well groomed and maintained. The swimming pool was very clean and people very friendly. Some 3 or 4 couples from surrounding units were partying until late in the night (possibly 2 or 3 a.m.) and we did not hear a single thing; totally kept to themselves without bothering us, which was good. The prices of canned and bottled beverages in their store was very comparable to prices outside in the nearby supermarket. The only suggestions we would offer are that the people at the front office at check out need some polishing of their customer service manners and to have their pay phone repaired (since using our cell phone was not all that allowed since it is a clothing optional resort). This is important: being clothed or not is an option: I saw ladies going in the water with their bottoms on, apparently not a big deal. High speed internet available throughout (we got signal in our rental unit). All in all it was a very pleasant stay. A perfect spot to reconnect with your significant other!
