Sullivan, Missouri
All-male, clothing-optional camping retreat on 65 acres an hour west of St. Louis, late March to November
SIRenity Farms is an all-male, inclusive private camping retreat on 65 acres outside Sullivan, Missouri, less than an hour west of St. Louis off I-44. It is open to all men 21 and over, gay, bi, straight-curious and trans, and the FAQ answers the trans question with a plain yes. It is clothing optional. The 2026 season, its seventh, ran seven days a week from March 27 to November 1. Lodging runs from the Lodge, a Cottage, The Den, the Village Suites, cabins, duplexes, vintage RV rentals and a bunkhouse, plus 19 numbered RV sites (six pull-through full-hookup, seven back-in 30-amp full-hookup, two extended-stay and four electric-only) and tent sites. Rates are quoted through the booking system rather than posted. A current membership is required for a day pass, which is bought at the office daily. The grounds have a two-acre lake for fishing, two pools, four hot tubs, several shower and bath buildings and the Pole Barn for events. Halloween weekend closes the season. Dogs up to 60 pounds are allowed only in rental accommodations other than the bunkhouse, and no pets are allowed inside the pool fence.

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.

St. Louis has nine gay bars spread across four neighborhoods — The Grove strip, two side-by-side dives in Carondelet, a piano bar and the city's oldest, open since 1988.

After 40 the velvet rope matters less and the pool deck matters more. Here are the six destinations that deliver, the bear weeks and cruises built for a slower pace, and where to stay in each, drawn from our venue listings and event guides.

Leather bar, bear bar, video bar, tea dance, piano bar, dive. Every type of gay bar explained: what it is, how it started, what a night looks like, and how to find one near you.

Circuit parties are the big dance weekends on the gay calendar. Here's what they are, where the name came from, what actually happens, what to wear, and which one to pick first.
