Water enthusiasts can access Lake O' The Woods Club by boat or vehicle, though the access road presents rough conditions. This private campground sits on a small plot between an old tennis court and residential neighborhood in Valparaiso, offering full hookups for RVs including electric, water, and sewer connections.
The facility provides basic amenities like drinking water, restrooms, showers, and WiFi, with rates ranging from $35-60 per night. One reviewer noted limited shade except for a single spot and mentioned train noise occurring between 8pm and 2am. The campground allows pets and accepts reservations. For additional overnight options, campers can explore places to camp near Valparaiso in the surrounding area.
Description
Founded in 1933, the Lake O’ The Woods Club in Valparaiso, Indiana is the second-longest operating naturist club in the U.S.A. The club is set around a beautiful spring-fed 20 acre lake on 130 acres of hilly, forested terrain. Our facilities include a clubhouse with two kitchens (one for guest use, the other for cooking for large groups at club events), an outdoor pool, indoor hot tub, two sandy beaches with sun decks about half a mile apart on the lake, and a small dog beach. The lake is great for swimming, boating, and fishing, and it has hiking trails all around it through a forest full of wildlife. Come see for yourself! As a cooperative club, Lake O' the Woods Club welcomes folks and friends from the world-wide nudist community but has no regular staff or office, so we ask your patience when signing in! Visitors are welcome during the season when there is a Gatekeeper on duty (between 9 AM and 9 PM every day; with limited entry after 6 PM) to greet them and offer hospitality and a tour if time allows. We welcome inquiries regarding visiting, camping, membership and reservations for accommodations for the summer. This website covers most questions you may have, but if you want to speak with someone call 219-477-6643 or 219-241-0739 and leave a brief message and we'll get back to you.
