Feels forced out

One of the rooms for rent at the Noosa Edge Nudist Retreat.

A NOOSA nudist retreat made headlines this year after council received a complaint about an impending swinger’s party at the venue.
Noosa Edge Nudist Retreat owner Rainer Muekenberger said he had operated the bed and breakfast establishment for over three years without a single complaint and now faced the possibility of having to pay a $16,000 function licence fee.
Mr Muekenberger, who has been a nudist since he was 16, has put his property on the market saying he feels he has been forced out of the area.
