It's time to sign up for your Summer Vacation!
As a community, Dark Odyssey is
a melting pot of diverse identities and interests that welcomes
people of all genders, sexual orientations, and perversions.
Each DO event is a wholly unique experience which brings together
sexuality, spirituality, education, and play in a fun, supportive,
non-judgmental environment where fantasy becomes reality.
These events immerse you in an atmosphere of sexual
energy and experimentation that will add excitement and passion
to your relationships and create deeper levels of connection
between you and your partners.
Leather Retreat is the event that started it all, way back in 1998. With a firm belief that BDSM events should be more than just "tie me up and flog me" weekends, we broke through the BDSM vs Sex barrier and embraced the hard choice not just to allow sexual activities at our events but to encourage it. We opened our arms to the swinger community, the queer community, the spirituality community and more. The result is an event that seamlessly blends people from across the spectrum of the alternative lifestyle community and gives them an experience that many describe as transformative if not simply the best vacation of the year.
LR is held on a 200 acre retreat
facility in Northern Maryland. The place started life as a
kids' summer camp but now hosts adult events, nudists, music
festivals, and even the occasional band camp. Since we aren't
competing with the kids for prime time, our event happens
the last weekend of June after schools are out, graduation
ceremonies are over, and the weather has warmed up. It really
is a summer vacation ... a kinky, sexy, unbelievable vacation.
Unlike a big hotel event, the owners of our camp allow us
to do just about anything (legal) we want (that's safe, sane
and consensual, of course). The camp staff has been around
this stuff for years, so no one will blink at anything you
do. At camp, we have freedom and privacy.
We give up a cushy hotel room in exchange for being able to
really live out our fantasies, unencumbered for six straight
days!
Leather Retreat is an all inclusive vacation. We feed you
three meals a day plus a midnight snack. You'll stay with
a bunch of your friends (or make new
ones) in one of our 40 cabins, each with real beds, full bathrooms
and electricity for all your toys. The big gym in converted
into our main dungeon, the barn and pavilion into smaller
themed play spaces. There is Sex-O-Rama, the Pamporium, the
fire pit and a great pool located right in
the center of camp. We even run a fleet of golf cart taxis,
mainly because its fun to drive golf carts around, so sign
up to drive the topless taxi.
We welcome everyone - straight, bi, queer,
genderqueer, and transgendered. We are a truly multi-gendered,
multi-sexual community with singles and
couples, veterans and newbies, monogamous duos and polyamorous
families. We are sex-positive with interests as diverse as BDSM,
swinging, Tantra, sacred sexuality, Paganism, crossdressing,
and lots of twists on "vanilla" sex. We appreciate that everyone has their
own fetishes, kinks, and turn-ons, and we want to make room
for them all. We strive to create an open, tolerant, non-judgmental
environment with top-notch play spaces, creative amenities,
and inspiring events so that people can have a truly immersive
experience. Our goal is to build a magical place where you
can live out your wildest fantasies and dreams.
Oh and don't worry if this is your first time...We love virgins!
We have lots of activities to help you break the ice. On your
second day, you'll fall into the routine and by the third,
you'll be helping (and checking out) the new arrivals. By
the end of the week, you'll have made a ton of new friends
and will be planning that big scene you want to do next year.
