What is Healthy Hides of Houston (HHH)?
Updated
Healthy Hides of Houston (HHH) is a non-landed, clothing-optional social club serving the greater Houston area and surrounding communities. It is affiliated with the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR) and The Naturist Society Foundation Inc. (TNS). If you are looking for a recurring social group rather than a resort or campground, HHH fits that description: it has no permanent property of its own and instead runs events at members' homes, restaurants, and other venues.
What kind of club is it?
HHH describes itself as a non-landed clothing optional social club. Two parts of that matter:
- Non-landed means the club does not own or operate a resort, campground, or other fixed nudist property. Activities happen at borrowed or rented locations.
- Clothing optional means nudity is permitted, not required. The club's own monthly newcomer dinner is explicitly held in a clothed setting.
The membership is described as mostly couples, with a balance of single males and single females.
What does HHH actually do?
The club's activity mix falls into a few recurring categories:
| Activity | What it is |
|---|---|
| Nude house parties | The club's best-known event type, held at members' homes |
| First Friday Dinners | A monthly restaurant meetup in Houston, in a clothed setting |
| Summer outings | Visits to landed clubs in the Houston area |
| Joint regional events | Events sponsored with other southwest regional clubs, including clubs in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana |
The published event list shows this rhythm in practice — for example, a First Friday Dinner on Sept. 4, a House Party/Pool Party on Sept. 19, a Halloween Costume Contest house party on Oct. 17, a Thanksgiving house party on Nov. 21, and a Christmas house party with a gift exchange on Dec. 12. A full calendar is maintained on the site.
First Friday Dinners
This is the club's main entry point for people who are curious but not ready to attend a clothing-optional event. It is a monthly get-together on the first Friday of each month at a Houston restaurant, where members and board members meet prospective members in a clothed setting to get to know each other. According to the site, the next First Friday dinner is scheduled for Sept. 4, 2026. You must contact HHH through its "Contact Us" page to receive the invitation and location information — the restaurant location is not published openly.
Places the club goes
The site lists these destinations and partner activities:
- Star Ranch Nudist Club
- HCN Boat Party
- Emerald Lake Resort
- Nude Bowling
- AANR-SW Nude Racing Series (with a 2026 schedule linked)
Who is it for?
HHH is a reasonable fit if you:
- Live in or near the greater Houston area and want a local, recurring social group
- Prefer a club without a permanent resort property
- Want a clothed, low-pressure first step before deciding about clothing-optional events
- Are comfortable with a membership that skews toward couples
It is probably not the right fit if you are looking for a destination resort with on-site facilities, or if you want to attend an event without first making contact — the First Friday dinner requires you to request the invite and location.
How to get started
- Go to the HHH website and use the Contact Us page to ask about the next First Friday dinner.
- Attend the dinner in a clothed setting to meet members and board members.
- Use that conversation to decide whether to pursue membership and which events to attend.
The site also publishes pages on About Us, Club Rules, Club Officers, FAQ, Membership, and Documents, which are worth reading before you make contact so you know what the club expects of members.
