Last week our family spent a few days at a friend’s lake house. My father has a coworker who has a cabin up at Lake Sam Rayburn here in East Texas. Dad has gone fishing a few times with him and told us how nice the cabin was. It is lake front property in a secluded cove. The coworker and his wife offered my Dad the use of the cabin for a few days, and he gladly accepted.
We were all excited to see the cabin and spend some family time together. My sister and I wanted to invite some of our friends to join us, but Mom wanted this week to be just us family. I enjoy the company of my friends just about every day, and my sister and I often forget that Dad doesn’t feel comfortable going nude around our friends. Mom suggested that we give him a break and go to the lake without our friends.
When we arrived at the lake house, it didn’t take me long to figure out why Dad liked the place so much. The house was a cute and rustic cabin, but it was the fact that it was so secluded that made me realize it was perfect for our family. The cabin was a few hundred feet from the water’s edge, in a small clearing surrounded by trees. The smell of the pines was the first thing that hit my nose as we got out of the car. The property was tucked into the back of a cove with no neighbors as far as I could see.
We got settled in, and my sister and I took a walk around the property. When we returned to the cabin we found that Dad had pulled a couple of Kayaks from the storage shed. He suggested that we put on our bikinis and scout out the cove before we decide to strip and go nude for the week. He just wanted to make sure no one was camping around the cove and that no one would be able to see us.
So my sister Karen and I changed into out swim suits and paddled around the cove enjoying the beautiful scenery. We paddled out into the main lake and followed the shoreline around to the next cove. There we found a couple of cabins but it appeared that no one was home. We pulled up to one of the cabins and got out of our Kayaks. We hiked up to the cabin and it was indeed empty. Maybe like our friends cabin, the owners only use it on weekends. We hiked thru the woods behind the cabin and followed a trail that lead all the way back to our neighboring cove. We could barely see our cabin thru the trees and realized that we were indeed secluded enough for all of us to get comfortable. So without saying a word, I smiled at my sister and pulled the strings on my bikini top and then slid my bottoms off. It didn’t take Karen long to do the same. We turned around and hiked naked back to our Kayaks and paddled back around to our cove and back to our cabin.
Mom and Dad were inside the kitchen of the cabin when we walked in, and they were already nude and preparing lunch. We told them that we didn’t see anyone on either side of our cove and I announced that unless a boat came into our cove, that I will be naked for the rest of our stay.
We spent the rest of the day nude and fishing off the bank and hiking in the woods around the cabin. That evening after dinner we started a little campfire and roasted marsh mellows and sat naked around the fire. It was a wonderful end to our first day at the lake.
The next morning I awoke to the smell of breakfast and my sister and I joined our parents for breakfast. My sister Karen and I had planned to Kayak around our cove and do some more fishing and swimming. So after breakfast I step out the door of the cabin and let the cool morning breeze blow around my nakedness. For an August morning it felt nice and cool. I walked toward the water’s edge where we had left our Kayaks the night before. I was enjoying the breeze and the smell of the pines and was about half way from the house to the shore when I noticed a bass boat thru the trees floating in the cove with two fisherman. I stopped in my tracks not knowing if the fisherman had seen me. I did as my mother had always taught me, I didn’t try to hide or cover up. Mom always told us that we will never change the public’s view on nudism if we cover and hide in shame as if going nude is somehow an unnatural state to be in. So I just simply turned around and walked back up to the house, casually and proudly strolling along as if I were wearing a pretty summer dress. I walked in and told my sister that we had someone in the cove and would have to wait until they left before we started our day of fishing. The way the trees blocked the house, we could sit on the porch of the cabin and not be seen. So we waited there until the boat left the cove. So I learned a good lesson that morning. Always look out the windows to see if anyone is in the cove before leaving the house!
We spent the rest of the week swimming and fishing nude, and a couple of times we were brave enough to paddle out into the main lake and around to the next cove to explore. We all had a great time and enjoyed our nude time together. Sometimes a boater would interrupt our nudist activities, but for the most part we could spend our time out on the shore or in the water and not be disturbed. Dad enjoyed his nude time with us since he rarely gets to do so at home because it seems our friends are always at home with us. The quite time allowed us to talk and plan for the upcoming school year and have one last naked week together as a family before school started back.
I want to thank everyone for your kind words and support! Don’t forget to sign up for “Suzie’s Goodies” so I can contact you when I have a new post.
Love,
Suzie
Sounds like an ideal week with the family. I agree with your parents. We all need family time, just family.
Hello Suzie, a wonderful new story! And now I wish you success at school and I hope you will still have enough time for being nude. Greetings from Germany, Bernd
Finally, your dad gets to be nude with you, your sister and your mom. 🙂 Such an idyllic time for you all. <3

Hi
Congratulation for your blog. It’s a pleasure to read your short strories about nudism life style. I’m a newbie in this life style and I’m agree with your mom’s philosophy when she say that nudist shouldn’t hide and cover in shame, because that means it isn’t normal to love being nude. But it’s difficult because nudists are marginal (around 1.5% in France). And the difficulty is to be able to assume this state without offending no-nudists to change the public’s view.
I’m also impressed that you share your life style with some friends, because share nudism life style is the best way to change the public’s view. And if each nudists talk about their nude life style it their best friends and family, rather hiding, could be the best solution to popularise nudism and perhaps convert someone (your friends’ parents are the best example).
In my case, reading your blog give me the urge to stop hiding I’m nudist and talk it around me (family and best friends)
Thank for your blog

Thank you Alan!
So how are your friends and family reacting to the news when you tell them?
His English is much better than my French!

to whom do you ask the question?
Alan Le Frenchy
The question was for you Alan…how has your family and friends reacted to you talking about your nudism?
Hi
I started but it’s diffcult, because I’m the only one nudist of my family and fo my freinds’group.
I don’t come from a nudist family and my family-in-law doesn’t either. I never lived in a nudist environment and I haven’t nudists friends.
I don’t know how I came to the nudism, but if I look at back, I can tell that I’ve always been attracted by nudism, and comfortable with nakeness through some experiences.
The first step was convincing my wife to follow me in this way and in this life style. It isn’t win yet, but, I started there’s 3 years ago, and 3 years later she begin to accept. And she accepted this summer to come 3 days into a nudist ressort.
The second step was to speak about nudism to my family. I have talked about it to my parents there’s few mounth ago and they had positive reaction. They asked if we took a nice time and if it was well.
And the next step, I wish I could talk about it to my best freind as soon as the opportunity arises.
Alan
Late response: Hope the few boaters didn’t give you guys too much trouble.
