The floor of the office is being redone next week. This will severely limit our ability to provide our normal services to visitors and members. We picked next week because only 2 days will be impacted. Monday-Tuesday (March 30&31) The office is closed as it has been all winter. Wednesday-Thursday (April 1-2) Very limited service because customer service will be done from a temporary location in the Bare Bistro. None of the Bare Boutique merchandise will be available for sale. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding. Friday (April 3) Closed because of the Good Friday statutory holiday Saturday-Sunday (April 4-5)Read More →

In order to be more efficient, we will be closing the office and restaurant on Mondays and Tuesdays starting on November 3rd and until the end of March. We have noticed that those days have extremely few visitors during that time of year so closing the office will allow the team members to focus on other tasks. This means that we will not be able to accept any deliveries on those days. Of course, we are always open for members using their keyband or keyfob and the amenities in clubhouse will still be maintained.Read More →

Today we are releasing the Naturist Colouring Book as part of an ongoing campaign to promote the benefits of naturism for youth and to encourage families to explore naturism together. The 20-page book features black & white cartoons by naturist illustrators Grace Crowley from Australia and Reinder Dijkhuis from the Netherlands. The images are of naturist families in typical settings. As you may have noticed, we have been answering questions and addressing misconceptions about children in naturism since June with videos on Bare Oaks’ social media. This book is just another part of our campaign to promote the benefits of growing up in a naturistRead More →

Each year we experience an increase in visitors. A couple of years ago we built a new parking lot for those busy days. We made it bigger than what we thought we needed in order to accommodate future growth. Much to our surprise, we already filled it twice this year. With the increased attendance has come greater water consumption. We realized last year that we needed to boost treatment capacity to replenish the two 20,000-liter cisterns after the morning and evening rush. We approved an estimate from a supplier last fall but they did not actually do the work until last week. We apologize forRead More →

In the last decade, online ordering has exploded. What use to be an occasional task has become a daily tsunami of trucks, delivery people, and packages. (this image is just one day’s worth of packages) So effective June 1st, we will be charging $5 per delivery. ($2 for those with a mailbox) Some exceptions will be made upon request for people disabilities. Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park is a place where people come for leisure. We are a recreational facility so there is no inherent right to receive mail or packages. The objective with this new policy is not to make money but to reduceRead More →

This year has been quite the rollercoaster for Bare Oaks, with an unbelievable number of surprise expenses that have left us both frustrated and exhausted. It seems like everything that could break, did break, and often at the most inconvenient times. Here’s a rundown of the unexpected challenges we faced and how we managed to keep our spirits high despite the setbacks. First, we discovered a pool leak under the concrete deck, which was not only expensive to fix but also time-consuming. Then one of our septic systems decided to give up on us. This was a major issue that required immediate attention, and theRead More →
