It's a 30 acre resort set in the wooded hills of southwest Ohio.
"It's a nice little slice of paradise," said Kevin Stetson, manager of Paradise Gardens.
From relaxing by the pool to sitting under a canopy of trees, time here ticks away, reported ONN's Harrison Hove.
"What you see is what you get. There's no hidden pretense," said Stetson.
Stetson means it from the bottom of his heart, but also from head-to-toe and anywhere in between. That's because Stetson manages southwest Ohio's premiere nudist resort.
"I'm like anybody's next door neighbor. For me, it happens to be a lifestyle I've been in for 30 years," he said.
In that time, many fresh faces and the inexperienced have driven through Paradise Garden's wrought iron gates.
Four years ago, Nick Smithson and his wife spent time here and got hooked.
"A nudist camp is perceived to be a swingers club. It's not a swingers club. It's a different type of lifestyle," said Smithson.
A lifestyle built on socializing, from dancing to darts and sun bathing to swimming. People here fish, camp and do a number of activities without judgement.
"You can't look at someone and can't tell by the way they're dressed how rich they are or how poor they are. You judge each person on their personality," said Smithson.
People from all walks of life come here to bare all.
These nudists say no clothes is the key to breaking down society's barriers. You drop the preconceived notions the minute you drop your drawers.
"No one's staring at you, no one's gawking at you. No one's pointing at you," said Stetson.
After 30 years of soaking up the sun and embracing nudist life, Stetson has never run into a friend from the outside world at the resort.
"No one knew the difference. No one knew my tan was all over," he said.
That's until now.
