My wife surprised me with a stay at Sea Mountain. She packed the car and told me to get in and drive, all I had to do was follow her directions. As we were buzzed in the door, we were met by a staff member who gave us a tour and showed us to our room. Let me say this is not a place for the prudish, you are expected to be nude and shall we says folks are not shy about displays of affection! With that being said it was one of the most relaxing stays we’ve ever had anywhere. The pool and jacuzzi were totally enjoyable, the outside temperature was a tad warm 102 so the pool was the place to be. Throughly enjoyed seeing my wife enjoy the pool so much and the lounge chairs were a comfortable way to relax. The drinks, snacks, and food provided by Sea Mountain were great and the ability to order dinner and have it delivered was a good way to go because who wants to leave once you get there. The all female staff were extremely helpful and easy to deal with. It was a quiet time of week to be there, only 5 or 6 other couples which was fine and there are only 15 rooms which is also fine with us. Bottom line, would we do it again? Damn right we would! My wife enjoyed it so much she told me we’d be going back every 3 or 4 months and I can’t wait! Thanks for a great time Sea Mountain, see you soon.

What an amazing day I had at Living Waters Spa! It’s clean, extremely relaxing and the owners Jeff and Judy made me feel welcome and comfortable. I got the Sunday massage special with Kat, and received one of the most therapeutic and enjoyable massages of my life. It was incredible and affordable. The two mineral water springs are the perfect temperatures and appear very well maintained. I was able to soak up the sun in my birthday suit, and step in the healing powers of the springs or sauna at my leisure all day. I’ve never done anything like this (with the exception of a European vacation 25 yrs ago) so I was a bit hesitant about entering the venue. However, it is extremely private, and Sami (staff member) met me at the door, showed me the facility and gave me the rundown on clothing optional etiquette, so I knew exactly where to go and what to do. After a day of relaxation, Jeff and Judy invited all the spa/hotel guests (also first-time clothing optional folks) to partake in housemade cocktails and/or hibiscus tea in the hot tub-like hot spring. The day was relaxing, loaded with natural vitamin D, and liberating. I highly recommend Living Waters Spa, if you’re looking to add some extra awesome to your spa day or vacation.

Children likeGuy J Tedesco Park . They love the huge boulder and the playground. We can do sports as well. We can picnic as well. The best of all is skating. This is the new style. Everybody does that now.

This is the Wardman Park. When we arrived they were painting the swiming pool. There are a lot of activities: The Pool, Baseball and tennis. People can sit when they play sports. There were trees, quite beautiful! There is a playground. I liked this. Worthwhile to see!
