Have you done the pitch and putt at Cypress cove?

The Cove and Lake Como would be my first choices.If you accomplish 3 would you get rid of most of your clothing and just keep enough for errands, etc. or save enough for an extended clothed vacation from time to time?We would have to downsize to move from a house to a mobile home, but would probably accomplish this by getting rid of a bunch of coats and other winter clothes. I can pack 3 tee shirts, 3 pairs of shorts, and a couple of golf shirts and be good for a 10 night nude cruise with a couple of nights pre and post cruise at a nudist resort, but we still do textile vacations, too. The camper van idea is the one where we would have to not bring much clothing with us. I am thinking of a small class B van, not a big class A motor home. A handful of clothes for a 3+ month stay.
Sounds like what you take on the nude cruise ( 3 shorts, 3 t shirts, 2 golf shorts plus what you are wearing when you begin your trip) should be about right. Granted you would need to wash them, but I assume either place has laundry facilities.

5 out of the 6 nude cruises weve been on were on Carnival and they have laundromats. The last couple of cruises we picked a sea day 1/2 way through the cruise and threw all of our clothes in and then headed out knowing we have zero clothes until the laundry is finished. Mrs JandC would still have a couple of see-through pareos that are too delicate to wash in a machine, but those are saved for formal evening wear in the disco. Our first few nude cruises we brought more and realized we went home with clothes that never even got worn, so I challenged myself to see how light I could pack.

Great, as I was saying you could probably get away with the same small amount of clothing for an entire season at a clothing optional resort in FL, just wait until you have no clean clothes and wash them all.
If you ever take a clothed cruise that is not on Carnival, you should bring enough for the entire trip. We went on a Royal Caribbean cruise with friends of ours who usually go on Carnival, and they had packed assuming there was self-service guest laundry, but there wasn't. They had to pay a ridiculous price for laundry service.

We are diamond level with RC, so they will do free laundry for us once per cruise. Thats a good thing since weve never done a nude cruise with them. The closest we came was one on Celebrity but that was back when we overpacked for nude cruises. When we sail with RC I always try to reserve a few nights pre-cruise at one of the Florida resorts or near Haulover Beach before the cruise and pick an itinerary that includes Sint Maarten so we can go to Orient Beach. And we get a balcony or mini suite so we have somewhere we can be nude a couple of hours each day.

We had a balcony on our last Norwegian cruise. Great to get in a couple hours of nude time on sea days.
Be nude at least 75% of the time from May - September and wear a shirt less than half the time I am not completely nude.Did that last summer from late March to early September with many hours of this time working naked in the garden.I actually wore shorts more than usual last summer since our grandson was here most of the time.Didn't wear much else since I had few places to go.Went from mid-May to mid-September without wearing long slacks and was shirtless more than ever.I did 5 1/2 months from late March to early September without having trousers (long slacks) on and only started waring them when my part time job started.Must have been warmer from late March to early May where you live than where I do.
I decided it was getting cold to walk the dog with shorts on the 3rd Jan this year so, got out my trousers out but with the warm spell at the end of Feb 13C (55F) I got my shorts out again and hope I have them on for every day use until December/Jan.
Yes I was about at a garden centre a few days ago when one of the workers said I was brave to have them on as it was a colder day.

A handful of clothes for a 3+ month stay.How can you go on a cruise with no long slacks? Eat dinner at the buffet every night? If there is a cruise line that allows shorts in the main and or specialty dining rooms, I would be interested in knowing about it,Are you planning an extended stay at a clothing optional resort before you decide if you want to live there permanently?Bare Necessities gets an agreement for their cruises to allow shorts in the dining room. The only long pants I bring are the ones I wear flying in from Boston (these cruises are in February). I do bring some nicer shorts that go with the golf shirts. We do eat in the buffet a few nights so we dont have to dress at all.Weve been to Cypress Cove a bunch of times for 3-4 nights at a time and know some of the members, so we know we like it there. We would have to go to Lake Como a few more times to be sure, but we liked it when we went.
Do you know why nude dining is permitted in the buffet but not the dining rooms? If it were for health concerns I would think that the buffet would have a greater risk?

Its just part of their contract. The dining room staff likes the A/C up higher since they are working hard and nude diners would want it warmer, so the staff wins. In the buffet they only have to bus tables, so it can theoretically be kept a little warmer (although we always have to complain that the A/C is too cold around the ship every year).
