Hi Lynn,
Actually, we've had a pretty good experience. As in any timeshare, I guess, we're able to book reservations in some very nice places, including the "home" location in Lake Tahoe. The places are typically two-bedroom suites that work out well for even a small family.
Basically, we can stay there, or we can opt to travel to any of the locations listed on their site. Also, we're eligible for monthly "get-aways" which is basically a reduced rate at several locations throughout the country.
Look at me, I sound like a commercial!
Seriously, though, we're happy with it. And in this case, we're both kinda disappointed we aren't able to make this trip this year. We travelled to the Seattle area a few months ago and ended up staying with relatives, so now we've got this week available.
