Buck, it really is a nice place. They do have limits on singles there and don't allow very many at a time. They have an annual open house that allows anyone in. Check their website for a date. That might be a good opportunity to look it over. I have been to them 2 or 3 times and have been very impressed with the place. People were very friendly and the facilities are well kept.
I went to the open house in 2017 and had a good time. People were friendly, met up with some friends from the St Louis area that I actually met at Valley View Hot Springs in Colorado. For the 2018 open house, everything I saw published was quite explicit about "females and couples only", so I didn't bother, even though I think I had convinced myself to join. It's a 2 - 2 1/2 hour drive each way, which isn't ideal, but not a deal breaker either. I just didn't want to drive there, just to be told "no". Perhaps I'll try again this summer if their date matches up with my availability.

I have been going to FAC for years. First as a single male now most recently with my wife. As a single male I had no problem visiting.
At first I would take day trips. I would call ahead and let them know I am a single male. I was only told there were too many males once. I called at the last minute that day. I was always welcomed and found myself in several conversations with both men and women individually and as couples. I simply paid attention to personal boundaries.
Later I spent several weekends there camping by myself. Even though I brought food and drinks, I was almost always invited to breakfast and dinner by other campers. Usually, the invite would be by one of the member couples but occasionally I would get together with a couple that was there for just that weekend that I met during the day.
By the end of my single visits I would easily mingle from one group to the next. Making my rounds to be sure I met all my friends that I could find.
Now, my wife has visited twice with me. She has felt comfortable with everyone I have introduced her to. I think her biggest shock was the number of people I introduced her to and the number of hugs I received on the initial greeting.
I would recommend the FAC to visit for the people I have met their. I am also happy with the grounds. They are not luxury but very comfortable.
