Parliament Resort - Augusta, Georgia
Parliament Resort
Augusta, GA
The World’s Largest All-Male Gay Resort
by Steven Skelley & Thomas Routzong
Augusta, Georgia, which sits on the legendary Savannah River -
a) is home to one of the most popular golf tournaments in the world
b) is the second largest metro area in the state of Georgia
c) has a historic district dating to pre Civil War, and
d) is home to The World’s Largest All-Male Gay Resort - Parliament Resort!
The Parliament Resort property dates back to 1958 when it was part of the Alamo Plaza Hotel chain known for its distinctive Mission Revival Style architecture, a U-shaped court, multiple buildings and a facade reminiscent of the original Alamo Mission in San Antonio, Texas.
Jimmy Key saw the property in the late 1990’s and knew it could be a special haven for gay men. He and his partner purchased the property and Parliament Resort was born.
“The Parliament Resort is a facility where men can come and be themselves and have fun in a controlled environment. We are large enough to handle diverse crowds and we encourage everyone to respect others. Our staff conveys this to the guest well,” Key told us.
Parliament Resort has 70 motel rooms with choices of 1 or 2 queens, or 1 king bed. One of our favorite things about Parliament Resort is that it is a gated property. Guests enter through a secure and manned gate and their vehicles are parked inside the closed gate.
Parliament Resort draws guests from just about everywhere in the world and from every vocation. Men stay at Parliament Resort during their business trips, come for planned vacations, or come looking for a place to relax for the weekend, “to meet new friends and party with old friends.”
Parliament Resort offers a large in-ground swimming pool surrounded by lush tropical grounds with banana trees, roses, hibiscus and flowering cannas. The pool area is clothing-optional and it is one of the favorite places of guests from what we’ve seen on our visits.
Other amenities include a Steam Room, a Hot Tub, a TV lounge, a Maze, a novice Dungeon, complimentary ice and free Wireless Internet.
Another asset of Parliament Resort is that there is a gay bar just next door! The Filling Station is very convenient for guests. Who needs a designated driver when you can literally walk back to your room in a minute?
There is also a liquor store just outside the front gate.
Guests must be age 18 or over and Membership and I.D. are required. Annual Memberships are only $10. Locals often purchase a $10, $15 or $20 Grounds Pass which includes use of the entire facility but not a room.
Campers will be happy to learn that Parliament Resort has an attached RV resort! Parliament RV Park (http://www.p-house.com/indexRvPark.html) offers Full Water/Sewer Hookups and 20/30/50 Amp Electric. Electric Utilities are metered and billed monthly. Water & Sewer are included. Residency is allowed, but is an additional $400 per year.
