Sunny Rest Resort Nudist Resort

Opened in 1945 - "We've Come a Long Way"

With thanks to FRANK of CHRIS, MILT & FLORENCE we've obtained these images from early fifties nudist magazines - some of them are quite amazing, check back often to see this article evolve. If you have any old photos we would appreaciate having them to add.

Arriving at Sunny Rest Resort is now a lot different than in the early years.

Believe it or not - this one from 1950 was taken from where FRANK & CHRIS live. The building directly behind the dirt bottom pool was then called the "chicken coop" — it's where the poolside rooms 16 & 17 are now.
The apple tree left rear is visible in the bathouse picture below.

Hmmmm we do keep the grass cut better these days.

Yes, we actually had a licensed private airport, and you thought Airport Road was just a name.

That's all for now - as we find more examples they will be added. If you have any photos to share - please let us know
