I'm with Jenn and the Doc on this one. When a place becomes clothing optional you almost always get lots of clothed people, and for some reason this encourages more people to wear clothes (I think this is especially true for women). And when there are a lot of clothed people, nudists either stop coming, or are not as enthusiastic about coming to such a venue.
As for the "gawker friendly" posts above: spoken as a single male, I'm sure. And that attitude might be one of the reasons for being single. Gawking is rude, both in clothed and nude situations. Sure, everyone looks/glances, that is human nature, but to gawk or stare for periods of time is offensive. Try going to a nude beach or resort and have some guy (it's always a guy) plop down in front of your wife or girlfriend and start staring up between her legs and let us know how comfortable that is for everyone involved.

In ranches, they have fences that separate different areas for one purpose or another. Why not fence off areas for clothing-optional, and strictly clothing-free. Leave it to the customers to choose with whom they want to be. In this manner a resort can please both factions. It doesn't have to be one or the other (mutual exclusivity).

Fences? Really? So ... who gets the swimming pool? Or are you going to run the fence down the middle of the pool? Or are you going to build a second pool, hot tub, laundromat, pickleball court, etc., so the All-Nudies and the Optionals can each have their 'separate, but equal' facilities? You might as well just build two resorts.
We're already obliged to fence ourselves off from the textile world, We really shouldn't have to fence ourselves off from each other.

Not to worry, Doc. Just fence off a small area for the clothing optional people, and place a kiddie pool in the middle. For those of us who want everyone else to be nude, we get the bulk of the resort. 
I can understand if some folks are apprehensive about clothed people running around. It's going to be that way. Of course, a lot of people won't care one way or the other.
I was thinking out loud how to make everyone happy. Maybe I mis-diagnosed the problem, and thus prescribed the wrong meds, so to speak.
Eventually, it should be up to the majority of the clientele at the resort, although management of those resorts could dictate if it's clothing-optional or fully nudity required. Sarongs seem to be okay universally, from what I've seen.
Maybe there is just no solution to this.

When we go we don't wear anything. We pay at the office park then strip and don't get dressed till we see the sign no nudity beyond this point when we leave. But I did see something a little strange the first time we camped this year. There was a small family just up the road who spent most of the weekend clothed and in their camp site. I noticed they were nude only for short times. And they kept to them selves all though one of the ladies came up and talked to me for a little bit fully clothed and me fully nude. It kind of reminded me of losing in strip poker and sitting next to some one fully dressed. The other thing I thought was a little strange was they did let their little kids run around nude even though they were dressed.

All resorts should be clothing optional. It really shouldn't matter to the resort owner what a paying customer chooses to wear or not.

When I was a member of a nudist club; I felt that all should be nude. It was a NUDIST club! Now, no longer a club member and a regular at a C/O beach, I try to make the textiles feel welcome whether they are wanting to try nudism or just wanting to share the space with us. I've found most to be friendly and comfortable with the nudists, as we should be with them. I Think I'm seeing that we have a better chance of bringing "clothing optionalism" into the mainstream than we do holding strictly to nudity.

I'm a confirmed nudist. I can be nude all the time. Mrs Horace is a comfortablist. She is nude, topless, bottomless, commando, or clothed depending upon the group, the wind, the position of the stars and other random factors. I believe in everyone being comfortable and feeling safe. Just the idea of being "required" to be nude freaks a fair number of people out who would otherwise be comfortable nude.
