Add caption Timberfell Lodge proves to be a great gay CMNM getaway in the backwoods of East Tennessee.
I promised (myself) that I'd write a review of Timberfell Lodge, the outdoorsy gay resort in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains of east Tennessee.Before the great memories fade completely, I'll try to get some of what occurred there during my first visit to Timberfell. It will definitely not be my last time to go.
SPECIAL NOTE: At a later time, I will come back to the topic of what kinds of CMNM situations I experienced at Timberfell Lodge, and also explore the idea of a real CMNM weekend event there in the future more in details in a later post. Any ideas in the meantime are certainly welcome! Send me an email or write your ideas in a blog comment.
* Timberfell Lodge would make a great venue for a Daddy-Boy Retreat, a CMNM Weekend, complete with circus tent for live role-plays and exhibitions. I understand that a Daddy-Boy BDSM Event has been held there in the recent past. I'm going to try to get one started there for next year -- hopefully in August (between Mr. Timberfell Contest Weekend and Labor Day) -- perhaps in conjunction with these or other existing annual events, or at one or more gay campgrounds in North America. Any suggestions or recommendation would also be greatly appreciated.
Why Timberfell Lodge proved to be a great gay getaway in the backwoods of East Tennessee.
There is still time this season (Summer 2020) to camp out - although they do have rooms and a bunk-bed dorm for the less outdoorsy.
Labor Day Weekend is one of their biggest events, and the last major one before the pool closes later this month, followed on by their annual Cocktobear-Fest in October.
What's hot and what's to do?
1) Bears galore - If you're into them, you'll have a large assortment to dazzle your fancy. There are other types of guys too.. like me (gray fox), and otters, panthers, and wily coyotes, too. There are NOT too many twinks, however (awhhh!). When I attended the Mr. Timberfell Contest Weekend, there were only 4 young men (20s), who were there because one of them (a hunky stud) was competing for the title. I'd say the average age is 45 - and there are plenty of older men, and quite a lot of younger ones 30 - 45. But only a few below 29. I did meet a 20 year old who was into older guys, and a 70 something into younger. It's all relative.. after all.
2) The location is isolated, so you can go nude anywhere on the resort (except the dining room),
3) Festive atmosphere for the weekend events,
4) Bar is open to outsiders, day visitors, and to guests
5) Sex is not guaranteed but highly likely if you've got what it takes (smile). Public sex is not allowed but there was plenty going on in the private areas.
6) Nice facilities - byob for wine/liquor, cannot bring beer but can buy it there, the food served is like home-style buffet - if you're not really a camp-style cook, pool and large sun deck, sauna, steam room can get active - especially at night - they open all night for your pleasure (smile).
7) Best thing was meeting the great guys - I had great conversations and still managed to get off at the right times. Wink!
Costs: Check it out online - but campsite $15 for 1 person per night, breakfast $6, dinner $20, poolside beer $3, snacks $3
From camping (in a tent or camper), to a bunk in the bunkhouse, to a room with shared toilet, to a fine private room with private bath. It's all up to you! They have events all year long - even when it's too cold to camp outdoors.
ADDED Bonus: The events are not very expensive, and day-guests are abundant on weekends. Also, there is actually a community of gay men who live (and a few work on site) at the resort full-time, particularly in the summer months. There are rentable trailer and RV sites for those who want a live-in gay nude resort experience 24/7.

Being a closet flasher I enjoy wearing my mesh shorts or athletic pants (liner removed)outdoors. Amazingly however, I rarely get noticed -- even when I don't wear a long shirt that would cover up the fact that I'm free-balling and hanging loose. There are different sized mesh weaves so the amount of transparency varies on the garment and whether it's sunny or cloudy (amount of light) affects how see-thru they appear.
For the first time in a pretty long while, I actually did get noticed. I went out about 7 a.m. the other day wearing my long mesh pants to take a morning walk -- without my dog. Lately I've been taking the dog out and hour or so later than that.
Along came someone on a bicycle who I've seen in the neighborhood before but haven't for a long time. He's a gardener / landscaper who works at a nursery nearby. I remember him because he's used come early to pick up the company truck parked in a lot across from where I live.
(The photo at the right is one of this blog's author. ---> )He would arrive on his bicycle and then proceed to stand sideways out in front the parked vehicle and take a long piss (just about every morning). I had noticed this habit - not because I was spying on him - but I'd see him when I came out to get the paper, looked out the window, He was apparently not deliberately exposing himself -- at least from my viewpoint. Yet I always wondered if he were sort of doing it on purpose. If he's coming to work by bicycle, his own place couldn't be that far away.
For a year or so, his company uses a different parking lot for their vehicles so I've not seen him taking a morning piss. Well, that other morning, as he rode passed me on his bicycle his eyes centered in on my freeballing cock in these mesh pants which was just hanging partly below my shirt. He turned in from a side road and so his view of it.was just a short glance, but he definitely reacted. Because he had earphones
on, as was listening to music, he could not heard himself but I heard him mumbled just as he passed me 'goddamn! or something like that, doing a double take.
Somehow I don't think he was not as shocked as he was surprised - maybe even delighted -- that there was somebody in his neighborhood he would do what he's been thinking about so long (his pissing in public was just his way of innocent flashing). So I now I think he might have been getting his own thrills as he 'innocently' pissed in public ever morning.
I know there are many -- if not most freeballers - who do wear no underwear for a lot different reasons than the thrill of accident exposure. But I think there might at least be a element of thrill of being seen for a good many -- even showing a VPL (visible penis line) through your pants/short that are NOT mesh must be appealing to some freeballers. Wearing mesh and semi-transparent or see-thru or ripped clothes with holes while freeballing is more further step along in that direction.

Traveling Alone -- Where to go, how to, and how not to (go alone).
byFirst published October 30th, 2005 at 11:17 AM, Republished May 15, 2020It's almost summer now, but there are warm places to visit during winter (in North America), too. I recommend some of my favorite gay travel destinations below.South Texas or San Antonio, New Mexico, San Diego or Arizona would probably feel very warm compared to those bitterly cold (but sometimes sunny) days where most people in North America live. Looking for a great travel destination - -to get away from the winter cold and blahs?I think Australia would be great -- in time for Gay Carnival (maybe it has another name) -- not only Sydney but visit Cairns, or even Melbourne, Brisbane for their special features.New Zealand is rated as one the best places to visit on the planet. There are also other great places in the South Pacific.
I highly recommend the Torrey Pines State Nature Reserve, located just north of La Jolla near San Diego, California. There is an officially sanctioned nude beach just south of the State Reserve, which is accessible most easily by using the Torrey Pines State Nature Reserve parking lots. The upper parking lots provide the quickest hiking access to the park and then southward down the beach to Black's Beach (the huge clothing optional beach). However, in March 2020, the upper parking lots were closed.By the way, what about NOT traveling alone?You could try finding a travel partner or join an organized trip or tour. For example, sometimes your college or a university in your area or even across the country, sometimes offers organized study-tours that may fit your schedule, budget and choice of location as well as really getting you deeply into some aspect of the culture you visit.They are generally set-up by the continuing education division and professional association and other types of groups/organization sometimes offer them too.Gay-oriented tours/tripsHave you (or has anyone else) had experience with joining an organized group trip as a single (gay) man? How was it? Would you recommend it?Does anyone know of how / where to connect with some good gay (or all male) travel groups or organized trips?ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーI have a partial list here but hope other can add more:Kalani (Gay men's retreat during certain weeks at this Big Island Hawaii resort (add dot com to find the web site). You can also stay there without participating in a retreat or conference. NOTE: It's been closed since 2018 when the Kilauea Volcano released a huge lava flow that destroyed 700 expensive homes and an unknown number of small unpermitted homes in the Puna District.Gay.com has a gay travel section that may have organized trips to some place warm during the winter.Travelocity and Orbtiz seem to have a special Gay and Lesbian travel section with some organized tours.There are Pride celebrations in warmer spots (some already mentioned).You might find a travel buddy -- even here on Dudenudes.com or try one of the other such as Hardbuddies.com has a travelers and expanded invitation section so that you can try to hook up both BEFORE you go and also when you get there.QTmagazine used to have ads for travel buddies, but I don't think it worked very well or was popular enough.Is there another site that does these kinds of things to get travel partner together?Craig's List lets you post ads -- but they may not be your cup of tea -- so to speak.Specialized tours or adventure or sporting tripsGaysports.com and gayoutdoors.com may have links to some possibilities.Also, there are a couple of tour operators for gay cruises, guided tours and scuba diving or sail boat trips, such as, alysonadventures.comand underseax.com. These latter types tend to be quite expensive.1) Honolulu and the Big IslandRecently, the beach located at Diamond Head Beach, off to the right down Beach Road (limited parking available) or simply walk through Kapioalani Park and then take Diamond Head Road to Beach Road).Nowadays, you can find naked or semi-naked nude men and a few women on the public beach at Diamond Head Beach. The city discovered that there is no law against public nudity on city owned beach, whereas public nudity is illegal on state-owned beaches, but not on Diamond Head Beach.On the Big Island of Hawaii, there is nude sunbathing at Beach 67, which is located above Waialea State Beach, located off of Old Puako Beach Road at Telephone Marker 67. It Is about 300 yards north of the entrance to Waialea State Beach. You take a dirt road into the upper portion of Waialea State Beach. It's about 400 meters (yards) down to a parking lot and a port-a-potty toilet. There is no drinking water available. Then park your car and walk down to the secluded Beach 67, which is a small clothing optional beach. There is sometimes cruising by males here at the Beach 67 and further along the rocky shoreline heading north.=================================
---------------------------------
4) Maspalomas Beach, southern part of Gran Canaria, Canary Islands
The world's largest nude beach and sand dudes (gay cruising area) is at Maspalomas (at Playa del Ingles on southern end of the island of Gran Canaria).
That 's where I'm headed for the 12th time in a few months (Jan 12-19).. I'm not camping but staying at a two-hotel hotel for about $30 a night (self-catering), sex city at night and sunshine and naked male skins for days on the beach. Men cruising the dunes are aged 40+ and higher so not everybody's preference.
Gran Canaria is a fairly nice gay travel destination - there are excellent points but also some negative aspects.
This entry is mainly about the sex clubs and the dunes.
In the Yumbo Centre (the largest shopping and commercial complex in Playa del Ingles on the southern and resort/beach side of the islannd, there are a couple (or more) sex club/backroom bars on the ground (basement floor) - they don't even open to 10 or later. You check your clothes at the door and there is not a dry (cum free) body by the end of the night (4 am?)
However, I have heard that the Yumbo Centre is going to be renovated sometime this year. Someone on this site told me many months ago so I'll have to look him up since he was due to travel there in Nov/Dec. It may be closed when you (or I) want to go there.
The above bars/clubs should not be confused with Basement Studios [url]www.basementstudios.es[/url]
which is a gay hotel just across from the Yumbo that requires a dress code for staying guests (different 'costumes' each day - all nude, jeans, leather etc,) and the rooms are all opened at certain time for those willing guests to freely roam about and suck/fuck like rabbits (I think that you can also pay to enter as as temporary visitor to enjoy the sex fun). See the site for details. I choose to stay somewhere cheaper (see alpharooms.com for ideas). I'd be exhausted in no time from diving in the morning, sex in the dunes in the afternoon and wide abandon both all evening and all night (LOL).
Of course, the dunes will NOT be undergoing renovation - except just what nature provides (wind/sun/blowing sand) and with nature taking its course (so to speak) - it's very cruisy - almost non-stop in the dunes. It is truly a nudist paradise - but it depends on what (and who) you expect to see walking the streets of heaven.
You should realize that - at least during the winter - Gran Canaria is the temporary home for thousands of retiree couples and also gay couples of all ages (who just want to get away from the snowy colder Northern European climes. There is a lot of camaraderie but typically couples are just hanging out and meeting their 'old' friends whom they met over several wintertime visits to Playa del Ingles / Maspalomas.
Nevertheless, there are hundreds of male (and sometimes female) nudists out sunning and also cruising the famous Maspalomas Dunes from morning to sunset. However, beggars can't be choosers - I'd have to say that the average age is at least 45 (probably older - more like 55 some days) but .. what the hey... who am I to turn done the advances of some middle-aged hottie. I am well into middle age myself. The clubs are different they attract a more virile and younger clientele.
The Canaries are NOT only about wild sex.. there is historical, cultural and natural environment that has a lot to offer - in fact, I go there as much for the diving and hiking and marine sports as for the gayness of its this varied resort attractions - it IS part of Spain after all.

Someone asked me recently to reveal the identity - actually the real street address / location of one of the places/people in my own uploaded Xtube videos (some are actually me and made by me). At least, he understood that it was NOT me in the video of Window Flasher Gets the Job Done. But...I can't tell you how many people have assumed that it was me (which may be flattering) but certainly means that people - esp Xtube Porno Smurf types don't or can't read. It's sometimes no small wonder they could actually find and sign up to be NON-contributing members of this site.
I really don't know why -- well actually I guess I do know why some people can be so stupid and unthinking or just plain dorky or lazy. I guess I should NOT actually care -- especially now (no comment but this IS Bush's Amerika --now in the 8th and final year. But god-damnation upon us.. it may just be supplanted by 4-8 years of HuckaBombaNation or MittRomMormanization of Ameri-KKKA. Are you going to next see (after the Guantanamo and Abu Graib fiascos) next can see next concentration camps for sexual perverts (like everybody who has joined Xtube would consider a captial punishment lethal injection-able offense by MH, MR or FT - probalby not RJ or JM - I'm know I'm only mentioning Republicans but this IS NOT THE CNN Morning news -- it's MY blog, right) popping up all across America -- after one of those GOP premediated Morality Police would-be Dicktatators (presidents) takes office. (LOL) Woe to me who would attempt defiled the solid reputation of the GOP!
But...back to my original point - in fact, I am protecting that person' identity -- from people (perhaps like you).
A year or so ago, when I uploaded the 'full' version of that video (which had formerly been available on VEOH) -- a bunch of people started snooping around and actually someone was able to identity the exact corner and the house / window from where it was shot.
So... to keep me (and him) from getting FBI inquiries (LOL), I cut out a lot of the views that might identity the location. It's been clipped down a lot. Sorry but that's how it's going to remain.
Instead of chasing down flashers and other sexual perverts or champions/heroes - it depends on how you look at them when doing so might brand you as a kind of sexual predator or stalker -if you actually did that by the way, why don't you do some of your own pics and videos.
My definition of a Xtube Porn Smurf:
I notice that they don't have much to offer: No profile pic, often NOT anything at all in their profile, No photos .. Nor any videos of your own... BUT they do have dozens if not hundreds of collected Friends and Favorities. That's not a criticism nor am I being totally sarcastic either .... but anybody who believes that Ben Affleck and Eric Mabius were 'accidently' caught naked or masturbating ranks at the same type of person who sits religiously in front of pro-wrestling matches on TV, cheering away like it is real or something... even a sport. ( I realize you ( probably) didn't MAKE those videos, you have made them your favorities.
What a person makes a favorite tells us something about them - not always what we might GUESS it should tell.
Just for you information (maybe you already know and just favorited them because you wanted to have the bookmarks (sometimes I do that)... but that is NOT Ben -- and he was 'famous' from the age of 9-12 when he hosted his own educational TV series on PBS. So I really doubt he would allow that type of video. The Mabius is an outtake from one of his films.
Sorry but my basic cynicism (and sarcastic humor) is peeking (leaking) out. I wrote this for the purpose of sending it to ONE specific individual but unfortunately, Xtube is rather stingy (incredibly slower server and very cheap intrasite email (message have to be limited in size) but I can't really complain as a consumer - but I CAN complain because my 'small' as it is (no .. not my dick size) contribution DOES bring in viewers/members - which does help increase the revenues of Xtube since having more viewers/website visitors pays them more advertising income - the site would definitely NOT be operable simply of user fees - so that's why they don't ask for them (except for premium services).
I usually take all 'messages' to be authentic requests -even by teh Porn Smurfs (people who CONSUME other people's private porn BUT who don't contribute ANYTHING themselves - such as you too perhaps you are guilty) -You'll probably get a better reception for your questions or requests for Friend status (which serves no purpose here on Xtube but as a bookmark) if you did your homework and also actually contributed something to the Xtube porn community (gay or str8 or whatever).. Write a blog or post some pics (NET ones - not ones you've stolen from somewhere else and are trying to pretend are YOU!!)
It'd be best too if you'd bother to read the notes on a video and the profile of the person who uploaded it before sending off a question to which you should (probably would) already know the answer.
Have fun... P.S. This is the 50th Anniversary of the Smurfs - which is probably about right (as an age or perhaps IQ) for most of you who fall into the Xtube Porn Smurf category. If not, stop acting like it.
Always bitter sweet but ohh, so good/bad,
