    Before you go

    • Arriving

      Just show up on event weekends; first-timers should speak with the owners when they arrive to help break the ice and meet other guests.

    • Privacy

      Private and public play rooms are available; the campground layout keeps RV sites well separated.

    • First visit

      Don't worry about age or appearance—many first-timers report that the owners and regular guests go out of their way to welcome newcomers and integrate them into the group, and attendance is relaxed if you prefer to socialise without playing with others.

    • Dress code

      Clothing optional throughout the resort; most guests go nude or minimal clothing at the pool, hot tub, and dance areas in the evening.

    • Facilities

      Club C3's own website describes the resort as having RV sites with full hookups, cabins, and hotel rooms; public and private play rooms; a pool and hot tub; a clubhouse with a DJ dance floor; and food service at events.

    • Food and drink

      Weekend event packages typically include breakfast and dinner; snacks are provided throughout the evening, and alcohol is available for purchase or bring-your-own.

    Lucky Lovers is a clothing-optional naturist campground and lifestyle resort near New Bern, North Carolina, with full hookup RV sites, cabins, and hotel rooms on a well-maintained property. Weekends feature themed parties with a DJ, pool and hot tub action, dedicated play spaces, and typically include food and mixers. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming for couples and singles of mixed ages (mostly late 40s to mid-50s, with some younger guests), prioritizing consent and no-pressure socializing; reviewers consistently praise the friendly vibe and respectful crowd, though a few report occasional rowdiness or cliques on busier holiday weekends.

    A typical evening starts around 9 PM with music, dancing, and mingling by the pool and hot tubs, where many guests go nude. Private and public play rooms are available, and the grounds stay active into the night. Breakfast and dinner are often provided at weekend events; guests can bring their own drinks or purchase them on-site. The owners are noted for being attentive and welcoming, especially to first-timers.

    It suits couples exploring the lifestyle for the first time, established swingers seeking a relaxed social scene, naturists who want a clothing-optional atmosphere without pressure, and solo women looking for a safe, friendly environment. The overall consensus is very positive—nearly all recent reviewers recommend it—though those seeking a younger crowd or stricter management of guest behaviour on peak weekends might occasionally find it falls short.

    Who goes
    Mostly couples and single women, predominantly in their late 40s to mid-50s with a growing mix of guests in their 30s and 40s; mostly white, some diversity, locals and occasional visitors from out of state.
    How opinion has moved
    Opinion has remained consistently positive over the review dates, with only one notably negative review from early 2024 about rowdy guests and smoking on a holiday weekend; most other reviews from 2022 onward are enthusiastic.
    Prices mentioned
    Weekend party price includes dinner; accommodations available

    What guests love

    • The owners and regular guests are welcoming, laid-back, and make first-timers feel comfortable without any pressure to play.
    • The atmosphere is relaxed and non-cliquish overall, with people who are friendly, respectful of consent, and easy-going about both participation and non-participation.
    • The facilities are clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed, with warm pools, hot tubs, private and public play spaces, and a good dance floor.
    • A wide variety of ages, body types, and experience levels attend, so newer couples and older guests feel included rather than out of place.
    • Food and snacks are generously provided at weekend events, and the DJ takes song requests.
    • Single women report feeling safe, respected, and able to enjoy dancing and socialising in minimal or no clothing without unwanted advances.

    What guests complain about

    • On some busy holiday weekends, the crowd can include rowdy or intoxicated guests who lack respect for others, and management response may be minimal.
    • Heavy smoking by guests in communal areas and near dining tables is a problem on certain weekends.
    • The age range skews significantly older, which some younger guests in their early 30s found uncomfortable or limited in terms of social compatibility.
    • Music selection sometimes leans toward older pop and party tunes rather than current hits, though the DJ does take requests.
    • RV site assignments have occasionally been changed last-minute without guest approval, creating inconvenience.
    • The outdoor layout lacks significant tree cover, which some guests found less aesthetically appealing.

      So much fun!! We went on a theme weekend so they provided breakfast and dinner. Mixers are provided and you byob. The main crowd seemed to be late 40’s to mid 50’s. Being older We didn’t feel out of place at all. Heck, one of the sweetest girls we met probably isn’t but mid 20’s, and she just hated wearing clothes. Since it’s a clothing optional resort. Most people around the pool and hit tub were naked and were acti…

      Somehow reservations for the 4th of July got deleted. Pat (the manager) admitted the goof and pulled a rabbit out of the his hat. The onsite accommodations he provided us were outstanding! Weekend saved! We had a great time, made some new friends and got time with old friends. Always a fun time at C3.

      Lucky Lovers Campground: Me (60m) and wife (55f) are looking at going to Lucky Lovers Campground but are concerned about looking old enough to be everyone’s grandparents. What is the age range of people that go there? I would say we are above average looking for our age but a little overweight. Is everyone there HWP? If this isn’t a good place for our age and looks, any suggestions? We have experimented in the lifest…

      It’s like any club you attend, it’s going to totally depend on who is in attendance. We know people that have a site there as well as friends who host parties there regularly. I have heard everything from cliquish to people being super friendly to only old people to a great mix of people etc etc etc We personally have never been as we find it rather pricey but almost went to their glow party (we had prior commitments…

      We are going this weekend, Fri 6/5. We are late 40s, first time at this campground, but we’ve been others and you just show up. Don’t worry about your age or your looks. Just go and have fun.

      It was a great trip! Hoping we can go back soon.
