New Milford, Pennsylvania
Members-only, clothing-optional men's campground in the Endless Mountains, May to September
Hillside is a private, members-only campground for men 21 and over in Susquehanna County, in the hills of northeastern Pennsylvania near the New York line. The campground describes itself as an all-male community that has run for more than 40 seasons, and it operates May through the end of September. Once you are inside the gate the property is clothing optional; clothing is required in the office and outside the gate, and nudity at the pool is fine but sexual activity is not. Sites run from community tenting and standard tent sites to RV sites, glamping sites, standard and premium cabins and a luxury rental RV, plus seasonal sites for regulars. The posted rate card, still labelled 2025, lists tent sites from $50 a night on weekdays and RV sites from $60, with higher weekend and holiday pricing, and a seasonal membership of $30. Day passes are sold too, cheapest Monday through Thursday. The center of camp is the pool, Club Inferno for dancing, Embers Cafe and the Splash Cafe, a camp store, nature trails and a nightly bonfire. Themed weekends run through the season, including an Illumination weekend. Pets are welcome on a leash but cannot go in cabins, rental RVs, the rec hall, the cafe or the pool area.

We verified 32 LGBTQ+ campgrounds in the US, from 700-acre men's retreats in the Ozarks to a women-only resort in Michigan's Thumb. This guide covers every one we could verify from the campground's own website: who's welcome, what clothing optional means there, what you can sleep in, what it costs and when the season runs.

A gay bar is a bar. Here's what actually happens on a normal night, why walking in alone is easier than you think, and how to pick the right one for your first time.
