Before you go
- Arriving
You must call the office (817-599-6833), text (432-528-7904), or email to book an appointment—no walk-ins allowed. First-time guests are not accepted Monday–Thursday (except by special arrangement in summer). You'll receive a visitor gate code for your specific visit.
- Privacy
The club's own website notes that sexual activity is only allowed in private spaces (cabins, trailers, playroom) and the trails—never in public pool or dance areas. Singles are invited (not required) to the playroom, and « no means no » is emphasized.
- First visit
New guests report feeling immediately welcomed by staff and other visitors. The club's own website reassures first-timers about common worries: erections are normal, no shaving required, and all orientations and body types are respected. Many reviewers say their first visit made them keen to return.
- Dress code
Nudity is mandatory in the pool and hot tub. The club's own website recommends bringing a bathrobe during winter or cold weather when outside. Flip-flops or slides are necessary for moving around.
- Facilities
The club offers two pools, a hot tub, a large dance hall with big-screen TV, a playroom, trails, a kitchen, a clubhouse, and cabins or RV sites for overnight stays. The club's own website says they sell ice, water, sodas, and Gatorade on-site.

Barehide Ranch is a 50-acre private nudist resort near Poolville, Texas (25 minutes northwest of Weatherford), catering to couples and singles aged 21+ who want to explore the naturist lifestyle. The club's own website emphasizes freedom and acceptance across all body types, orientations, and experience levels. A typical visit involves swimming in pools, relaxing on the grounds, socializing at the dance hall and events, enjoying meals together (often potlucks), and optional activities in the playroom. The atmosphere is consistently described as welcoming and relaxed, though some guests note the facilities show their age and could use renovation.
The crowd is mixed—experienced lifestyle couples, curious first-timers, and some single members create a social environment where people say friendliness is genuine. Weekends feature organized events, music, food, and activities from cornhole to hiking. Staff are praised for making newcomers comfortable, though opinions differ on whether the activity level suits everyone's interests. Background checks add a layer of security that guests appreciate.
Most reviewers love this place enough to return, rating it highly for its people and ethos. However, recent reviews flag maintenance concerns—pools, hot tub, and overall facilities are described as needing attention. The venue is best for couples exploring together or single women confident in a naturist environment; it's less ideal if pristine resort amenities matter more than community and freedom.

What guests love
- Staff and other guests are genuinely welcoming, warm, and non-judgmental, making first-timers and singles feel comfortable from arrival.
- The naturist freedom and acceptance of all body types, orientations, and experience levels—people say nobody judges and everyone is laid-back.
- The sense of community: potluck dinners, group activities like cornhole and hiking, and organized events create real connection among visitors.
- Background checks on all guests provide genuine peace of mind about safety and trustworthiness of others present.
- The grounds are spacious (50+ acres), with trails, pools, hot tub, dance hall, and a playroom offering variety for relaxation or socializing.
- The combination of nudist freedom with lifestyle opportunities means couples new to the lifestyle can explore at their own pace without pressure.
What guests complain about
- Pools and hot tub are inadequately maintained, with reviewers describing them as « gross » and in need of regular cleaning and upkeep.
- Overall facilities are aging and rundown—signage is unclear, grounds lack recent renovation, and the clubhouse feels dated and shabby.
- Single guests (especially single men) pay significantly higher day-pass and cabin rates (up to $200+), while couples mingle more freely and affordably.
- The atmosphere can be cliquey, with some reviewers noting that established groups form and newer visitors may find it harder to break in.
- The crowd skews toward watchers and those « dipping their toes » in the lifestyle rather than actively swapping couples, which may disappoint those seeking more action.
- Enforcement of nudity rules at the pool is inconsistent—some guests report seeing fully dressed people despite stated nude-mandatory rules.

Had an absolute blast. Owners and staff are so welcoming and the other guests and residents are the best. The grounds and resort are well maintained and very clean! Huge party room and dance floor and kitchen. Loved loved loved
Fun and friendly atmosphere, but for couples only. Singles could be paying up to $200+ for single day pass and cabin. People are friendly, but couples are preferred and could mingle easily and faster, and of course, spent a lot of good time. Amenities cleaningless pretty notorious and swimming area could be maintained better. I don't believe worth coming again.
Barehide Ranch was a really neat place and an awesome experience for my wife and me. We’re a couple who love being naked and are just starting to explore nude resorts and places like this, so we weren’t exactly sure what to expect going in. Barehide is a small community of like-minded people who enjoy the naturalist lifestyle and the freedom that comes with it. Everyone we met was super nice, laid-back, and welcoming…
Great place to relax. I've been here two times and it's really an extraordinary place. I had a mechanical mishap and the team of people working in this place are fabulous. Very gentle, a great team, all the staff and friends they visit. They are very generous people. Thanks to Mr. Larry for his support and guidance regarding the mechanical issue with my car. Thanks to all the hosts and club
Great people and relaxed atmosphere
This place is very much in need of some work. From signage of how to get around the place to just a very rundown place. The pool is simply ok, but otger than the pool area and dance hall, theres nothing else there. Although it stated nude mandatory at the pool, it was a mix of people dressed fully to partial and nude. Staff was neither welcoming nor friendly. Rather just take your money and be done with you. No kind…
