La Pommerie

A family-run naturist and eco-friendly centre in the countryside of southwestern Quebec, near the US border (Franklin/Saint-Antoine-Abbé), about an hour from Montreal. It offers sites for tents, vans and trailers, trailers and chalets for rent and “prêt-à-camper” options such as yurts, with pools, a small lake, a restaurant with communal dinners, a massage therapy service, a community garden and even a small vineyard. Plenty of sports (volleyball, softball, tennis, bocce) and stargazing evenings. The rules focus on peace and quiet: no radios in the common areas and no mobile phones outside the trailers. Nudity is mandatory when the weather allows, and always in the pool and around the lake; single people are admitted only if known to the management or sponsored by a member. Dogs and other pets are not allowed. Open from the first weekend in May to the last weekend in September. Opinions are very good: a family atmosphere, well kept and quiet, with some criticism about the lack of activities during quiet periods.
