Sunsport Gardens Family Naturist Resort

My husband and I are members of Sunsport Gardens and have been visiting this resort for a couple of years. It is such a relaxing place to spend some down time. It is on 40 acres of wooded areas and gardens that have been kept very natural. The pool and newly renovated hot tub are lovely, and the tiki bar has great burgers. Tracy who works at the tiki bar is awesome. We have made many friends at Sunsport Gardens and enjoy the drum circle on Friday nights when we can make it. There are many residents that live here and we have found them mostly very friendly.

SSG is owned and run by Morley. Morley appears to be in his 80's and is sadly ruining what could be an absolute paradise. He has very old school ideas and has no desire to put any money into improvements. The building that use to house the restaurant is run down and like a dungeon, it is very much in disrepair and has a stench. The water fountain at the pool has not worked for a very long time. The children's playground is not safe, and the volleyball and petanque courts are completely run down. My husband and I pay over $1000 a year as members of this place and we are sad to see that Morley, and his girlfriend, and her other boyfriend have no desire to clean this place up, or listen to suggestions from the residents or members.

I definitely would not suggest spending any money to visit Sunsport Gardens. They are working on outlawing anything and anyone that is enjoyable.

Used to be a nice place, they have a very nice pool and hot tub, also a small sauna which is very popular in winter. The place is more like a rustic campground, I would not call it a resort. Some of the staff are rude, others are as accomodating as possible, there is a French Canadian guy in the office, super nice guy. Avoid the place if you're allergic to mosquitoes as they outnumber the residents/visitors at least 6 to 1. The drumcircle night used to be nice and free, then they started charging $5 then $10 and more recently $15. The first visit is no longer free. They have raised prices left and right but do not spend the money to improve the place. Management does not run the place as a business more like their own little kingdom.

Sunsport Gardens, whilst one of the most beautiful, untouched, and organic grounds I have ever had the pleasure of residing on, is a despicable organization, and I would not recommend this place as one to stay at longer than a days visit...

I had resided here for 2 years and found extreme unprofessionalism with management in regards to nearly every possible dilemma with living situation, visitors, and overall quality of living. I am not the first and most certainly will not be the last to have terrible experiences at this place. Enter at your own risk.

They will fluctuate the price for entry as they see fit, will not uphold their own postings on drum circle entries and price, and discriminate based on age and sex. The past two years I have left during their annual "Kids Camp" as the owner and management has allowed sketchy and otherwise inappropriate individuals to attend and PHOTOGRAPH this event.

I truly wish to have had better closure whilst escaping this place, as many others have left shortly after I for incidents regarding assault and poor managing. My best days here were days where there was no interaction with the foolery of management.

The best parts of Sunsport remain the amenities and the great ground staff (given most of the buildings are not up to code and pretty much unsafe...the spa and showers are wonderful). Danielle, Danny, Sean & Tracy, and others who have up kept the gardens to keep it beautiful.

I could continue to write an essay about the treachery of Sunsport and how I will never support or promote this place as I had, but I am certain I have made all the points I need to give a true insight to anyone who may see this. Cypress Cove or Paradise Lakes are options I HIGHLY recommend. Happy Nuding :)
