Our property features 50+ acres of forest and recreational area to be explored and enjoyed. Bare Valley is ideally situated within Wayne National Forest. We have plenty of tall timber and hills to stop most winds and plenty of open areas to allow the sun's warming rays in. Even with cold weather upon us, some of our members do still enjoy hiking and, yes, even relaxing at Bare Valley We invite families, couples and singles to review our literature and consider becoming members. Bare Valley will allow you to enjoy your trip into nature naturally and nude year round. We hope you will consider visiting Bare Valley this year! |

Bare Valley in Print: |
We like to think of Bare Valley as a place you can come and kick back and get away from it all. we're not into partying, so if that's the kind of place you're looking for, we suggest you look elsewhere - but if you want a place to hike, soak in the hot tub, ride the paddle boat, talk with with friends and make new ones, we could be the place for you! Also, all prices subject to change. |
Bare Valley was listed in Nude and Natural magazine, Volume 16 #1, pages 97-10, published by The Naturist Society. |
