My wife and I have been active in the Maine swinger scene for several years now, and one of the things we love most about the lifestyle is the excitement, freedom, and opportunity to meet other open-minded couples. Over the years, we’ve traveled to swinger clubs, resorts, and parties across the country, which naturally leads to the question many couples ask when visiting or living in Maine:
What is actually available for Maine swinger clubs, Maine swinger resorts, and Maine swinger parties?
The honest answer is that Maine does not currently have traditional swinger clubs or large lifestyle resorts as you’ll find in bigger cities or major vacation destinations. That said, the lifestyle scene here is far from dead.
There is actually a very active community of Maine swingers, and most of the action revolves around private house parties, traveling lifestyle couples, hotel takeovers, and online connections. From our experience, the key to making connections in Maine is being active on the major swinger websites like SLS and being willing to travel occasionally for larger events and club nights.
With the help of a few strong online communities and some well-run private events, there are still plenty of opportunities for Maine swingers to meet others, attend parties, and build connections within the lifestyle community.
Below, we’ll break down what is currently available for Maine swingers, including nearby clubs, local parties, lifestyle groups, and the best ways to meet other couples in the area.

Maine Swinger Clubs
Unfortunately, there are currently no dedicated Maine swinger clubs operating in the state.
That’s a shame, because a traditional swinger club can be one of the best places to meet other lifestyle couples. These clubs typically feature dance floors, BYOB bars, social areas, and private playrooms where couples can connect and play on-site if the chemistry is right.
Even though there are no permanent Maine swinger clubs, there are still a few alternatives that provide a similar social experience.
If you want the full swinger club atmosphere, the closest regular option for Maine swingers is Club Sinz in Salisbury, Massachusetts, which is located less than thirty minutes from the southern Maine border. You can read our full Club Sinz review for more details on that venue.
When I first started looking for swinger clubs and resorts, my concerns went far beyond where to find them. I remember a bunch of insecurity and fear of how I would measure up. In our The Truth About Swinger Penis Size: Does Size Matter in the Swinger Lifestyle? article, we take a brutally honest look at this often thought of but rarely seriously discussed subject.
There are also additional clubs in surprisingly swinger-active Providence, Rhode Island, including the highly rated Electricity Social Club. These are all reasonable driving distances for swingers living in southern Maine and are worth checking out if you want a traditional club environment.
Another option for Maine swingers is Tranquility Clothing-Optional Camping Retreat, which we’ll discuss below. While it isn’t exactly a traditional swinger club, it does serve as one of the few lifestyle gathering spots in the state.
You should also check out the Maine Swinger House Parties section later in this article. These events are where much of the real activity for Maine swingers takes place.
Most Maine swinger parties and lifestyle gatherings are organized through SLS (SwingLifestyle), which remains the most active website for finding swinger events in the state.
Tranquility Clothing Optional Camping Retreat
625 Head Tide Rd,
Whitefield, ME 04353
Phone: (207) 500-3187
https://totranquility.wordpress.com/
Tranquility is probably the closest thing you will find to a Maine swinger club environment, although it is definitely not a traditional club.
The property is a clothing-optional camping retreat that includes playroom areas for swingers, and it has built a loyal following among many Maine swingers.
That said, this place is very rustic, and it won’t be everyone’s style.
The biggest issue for us personally was that there is no running water, electricity, or indoor bathrooms on the property. There are porta-potties available, and the main playroom area is a permanent structure, but the camping areas themselves are primitive sites in a large open field.
If you’re comfortable roughing it, though, Tranquility can actually be a pretty fun experience.
However, if you’re like my wife and me and appreciate things like running water, real bathrooms, and showers at swinger events, this probably would not be the right fit for you.
The property is open during the summer months, and weekend events often attract a solid crowd of Maine swingers. Once you reach the main camping and play area, the property becomes clothing optional, and many visitors take advantage of that freedom.
The location sits at the end of a long dirt driveway with plenty of parking once you arrive. The land itself is quite beautiful, with a large field for camping and river frontage where many swingers enjoy skinny dipping during the summer.
The playroom area is located in a converted church building, which contains several beds and a St. Andrew’s Cross set up for BDSM play.
On a warm summer weekend, you’ll meet a wide mix of Maine swingers here, and the crowd tends to be very friendly and social.
While it wasn’t quite the right fit for us personally, plenty of people absolutely love this place and visit regularly.
There is typically a small donation expected when visiting. The last time we went, the day fee was about $15 per person, but you can call ahead for current rates.
Maine Swinger Resorts
When people ask about Maine swinger resorts, they are usually referring to destinations similar to places like Hedonism II in Jamaica or lifestyle resorts in Florida.
A true swinger resort usually includes overnight accommodations, restaurants or bars, clothing-optional pools, hot tubs, and dedicated play areas. Swinger resorts are some of our favorite lifestyle venues, and every couple in the lifestyle should experience one at least once.
Unfortunately, Maine does not currently have a true swinger resort.
Want to check out some great clothing-optional swinger resorts without needing a passport? Grab a quick flight out of Bangor or Portland and visit Florida, the most swinger-friendly state.
Check out our listing of the Top 5 Florida Swinger Resorts for the best options.
However, there is one interesting location that many Maine swingers are familiar with: Richmond Corner Sauna.
While it is not specifically a swinger resort, it has enough lifestyle-friendly features that it is worth mentioning.
If your heart is set on a true world-class swinger resort experience, we would suggest a trip to Desire Riviera Maya. While not an inexpensive excursion, this is an exotic destination that every swinger couple should hit at least once. My wife and I have had some truly incredible experiences at this resort.
Richmond Corner Sauna
81 Dingley Rd,
Richmond, ME 04357
(207) 737-4752
https://saunamaine.com/
Wed-Sun: 6 pm to 10 pm
The Richmond Corner Sauna is no longer officially a swinger venue, and it now operates primarily as a clothing-optional naturist retreat. However, many Maine swingers still visit the location and occasionally meet others there.
Public sexual activity is no longer allowed in open areas, which means most interaction is limited to private sauna rooms.
That said, it can still work well as a neutral meetup location for Maine swingers who connect online first.
My wife and I have actually used this spot a few times as a first meeting location for couples we connected with on AFF (Adult Friend Finder). We have found that meeting nude at the Richmond Sauna can help move things along when meeting someone for the first time.
Meeting people here is not without its downsides, though. Public sexual activity is not allowed, and while some couples may fool around privately in the saunas, things can get pretty uncomfortable once the temperature climbs past 120 degrees.
The property operates as a clothing-optional bed and breakfast with traditional Finnish saunas, along with a heated indoor pool, hot tub, and sunning lawn for nude relaxation.
The overall atmosphere here is more rustic retreat than luxury resort, but everything is reasonably clean and maintained. It has a laid-back Maine feel rather than a flashy resort vibe.
Day passes for the lawn and pool are typically around $15, while evening access to the sauna and hot tub areas runs between $40 and $50, depending on the sauna option. Overnight rooms usually start around $140 per night.
Even though it isn’t a full swinger resort, it is still one of the best clothing-optional destinations in Maine, and it remains open year-round.
Maine Swinger House Parties and Maine Swinger Groups
Since there are no permanent Maine swinger clubs or Maine swinger resorts, most of the lifestyle activity in the state happens through private Maine swinger parties.
These parties are typically hosted by lifestyle couples who either hold events in their homes or rent out private spaces such as hotel suites for larger gatherings.
Many of these Maine swinger parties are extremely well run and can feel very similar to a small private swinger club for the night.
We’ve found that the key to finding swinger house parties in Maine is being willing to travel a bit and staying active on the major swinger websites where most events are organized.
So how do you actually find these parties?
The easiest way is through swinger websites. For Maine swingers, the most active platform for discovering local parties, lifestyle groups, and hotel takeovers is SLS (SwingLifestyle).
Seacoast Swinger Party
Near Kittery Maine
This is one of the more active Maine swinger house parties, usually held every couple of weeks.
The hosts have done a great job setting up their space with social areas, playrooms, a St. Andrew’s Cross, a MotorBunny, and both male and female glory holes.
We’ve attended this Maine swinger house party a couple of times and had a great time. The hosts often run icebreaker games early in the evening, which helps everyone relax and start meeting people.
The only downside is that parking is limited near the house, so guests sometimes need to carpool. The hosts do help coordinate parking and shuttles, so it’s manageable.
The party is open to couples, single females, and a limited number of single men, and all event listings and sign-ups are handled through SLS (SwingLifestyle).
Club Passion House Parties
Otisfield, ME
These events are held every couple of months and usually attract a great crowd of attractive and friendly Maine swingers. Unfortunately, these parties are not held as often as they once were.
The parties include music, snacks, dancing, a dedicated playroom, and even an outdoor fire pit during warmer months.
The hosts also like to run fun themed parties, which adds to the atmosphere and makes each event feel a little different.
Events are typically open to couples along with a limited number of single men and single women, and announcements are posted on SLS (SwingLifestyle).
Nooner’s Parties
YORK, ME
This group is based in southern Maine, although many of their events are actually held just across the border in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
Most of their Maine swinger parties are smaller hotel-room gatherings rather than full hotel takeovers.
The events focus primarily on couples, and you must be a member of SLS (SwingLifestyle) to attend.
They typically host about one event per month.
Swinger Events That Are Close To Maine
While there are limited Maine swinger clubs and resorts, there are still some excellent lifestyle events just outside the state.
Many Maine swingers regularly travel to nearby New Hampshire or even Canada for additional party options.
Kittenz Playhouse
Rochester, NH Area
Parties and Events listed on SLS
This is a fun regular swinger house party located just across the Maine border. Many Maine swingers attend these events, and they are listed on SLS.
Jo and David’s Parties
Saint Andrews, NB Area
https://joanddavid.party/
Another well-known lifestyle event near the Maine border. This party is located in New Brunswick, Canada, only a couple of hours from Bangor.
You’ll need a passport to cross the border, but it can make for a great weekend getaway for Maine swingers looking for a different party scene.
Meeting Up with Maine Swingers Outside of Parties and Events
There are a few online sites that Maine swingers use to meet up with other local swingers without going to the swinger clubs, resorts, or parties. These sites are SLS (SwingLifestyle), SDC, and AFF (Adult Friend Finder). We use these sites to meet the couples that we hook up with at the swinger clubs, swinger resorts, and sometimes just on our own.
While we have previously mentioned SLS and SDC, AFF is a little different. While SLS and SDC are great for meeting other swingers, they do place a lot of focus on meeting those swingers at clubs, parties, or events. AFF is totally focused on meeting other swingers in a one-on-one, real-world meeting. This is the site for those looking to meet up and establish a friendship with sexual benefits.
If you live in northern or central Maine and are not willing or able to travel regularly for swinger events, we’ve found that AFF is usually the best option for meeting other local swingers. The site has a surprisingly active community, with hundreds of Maine swingers looking to connect with other couples and singles nearby.
Important: When meeting up with anyone that you do not know, make sure that you meet in a public location. When meeting up one-on-one with another couple or single, we prefer to meet at a swinger club, swinger party, or even at a vanilla bar just to make sure that everything is what we think. Swinging is fun, but always put your safety and the safety of your partner first.
Top 3 Websites for Maine Swingers
Finding a good swinger website is essential for Maine swingers who want to either attend swinger clubs, parties, events, or even meet up with other local swingers one-on-one (or couple-on-couple as the case may be).
#1 SLS (SwingLifestyle)
SLS (SwingLifestyle) is by far the most popular website for Maine swingers and the New England lifestyle community in general. Since Maine currently has no dedicated swinger clubs, most of the organizing for Maine swinger parties and meetups tends to happen online, and SLS is where much of that activity takes place.
You won’t find a long list of club-hosted events like you would in larger lifestyle cities, but when Maine swinger house parties do pop up, they are often announced through the SLS Groups section or the HotDate listings.
The HotDate page becomes especially useful during Maine’s tourism season in the summer. Swingers from across the country vacation in Maine, and many of them post HotDates looking to connect with local couples while they’re visiting. If you’re local, it can be one of the easiest ways to meet traveling lifestyle couples or singles who are in the area temporarily.
Many Maine swingers, couples, and singles do maintain profiles on SLS, and it works well as a social hub for lifestyle networking and finding Maine swinger parties or gatherings.
Overall, SLS is our top pick for finding Maine swinger events and connecting with the local lifestyle community. That said, if your goal is strictly one-on-one meetups with couples or singles, we’d give a slight edge to AFF, which tends to work a little better for direct connections even though plenty of people maintain profiles on both sites.
#2 AFF (Adult Friend Finder)
AFF (Adult Friend Finder) works quite differently from sites like SLS (SwingLifestyle) or SDC, which tend to revolve around events, clubs, and group meetups. AFF is much more focused on individual connections between swingers, rather than organizing parties or lifestyle gatherings.
Because of that, you won’t find listings for Maine swinger parties or events on AFF. What you will find, however, are hundreds of Maine swinger singles and couples actively looking to meet others in the area.
Another noticeable difference is that AFF users tend to post far more public photos than on most lifestyle platforms. Profiles are often more open, which can make it easier to get a quick sense of who is active and serious about meeting.
For many Maine swingers, AFF ends up being a useful platform for arranging one-on-one meetups rather than group events. It’s the site we typically use when we’re looking to set up individual swinger dates with couples or singles outside of parties or organized gatherings.
While SLS is usually better for discovering Maine swinger parties, local groups, and lifestyle networking, AFF tends to work slightly better when the goal is direct connections with Maine swinger singles and couples.
#3 SDC (Seek. Discover. Connect)
SDC (Seek. Discover. Connect) is another popular platform used by Maine swingers, and in many ways it feels like a more polished and modern version of SLS. The site has a cleaner interface and more refined features, which many couples prefer.
That said, SLS still tends to dominate the Maine lifestyle scene simply because it has a larger local user base. You likely won’t find many listings for Maine swinger parties or events on SDC, but there are still plenty of Maine swingers who use the site exclusively.
Even though SLS is usually the main hub for the area, SDC is still worth checking out. It’s free to browse, and you may find active Maine swinger couples and singles who simply prefer this platform over the others.
