The Timeshare Authority blog post yesterday was about a HOT 100 List timeshare in Key West, so it is very interesting that today’s post is about a resort that is an equally wonderful timeshare vacation destination, but takes you from beachside and tropical palms to the whispering pines of a California mountain valley.

The HOT 100 List timeshare resort number 64 is the Mountain Lakes Campground at Lytle Creek, a California timeshare retreat that offers both cabins and campsites. This peaceful campground resort is surrounded by the San Gabriel Mountains and provides excellent access to California Citrus State Park and to Silverwood Lake State Park.

This serene campground is located in a secluded valley, at an elevation of 3200 feet, where summer highs can reach the 90’s, while evenings drop into the 50’s. In the winter, daytime highs get only to the 60’s and winter nights are brisk and chilly, but stay above freezing.

Your Mountain Lakes Campground California Timeshare

The resort includes over 500 full hookup RV sites, camping cottages, log cabins, a wilderness tent area, and lakefront villas. The cabins and campground at Mountains Lakes Campground timeshare resort are not only family-friendly; they are pet-friendly timeshares as well.

Hikers can use their Mountain Lakes Campground timeshare as home base and explore a number of excellent trails including: Ontario Peak Trail Cucamonga Peak Trail; Cable Canyon Trail, West Fork Trail, Dawson Peak Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, and Baldy Trail.

For winter vacations, your Mountain Lakes Campground California timeshare resale can be your personal ski resort. It is well situated for skiing the trails at Mt. Baldy, Ski Sunrise, Mountain High, and Mount Waterman, which are all within 20 miles of the Mountain Lakes Campground timeshare resort or for skiing Snow Valley, Snow Summit, and Bear Mountain, all located within a one-hour drive of the campground.

Mountain Lakes Campground timeshare resort in Lytle Creek Timeshare Resort is easily accessed from Ontario International Airport, Palm Springs or the Los Angeles area.

The Hyatt Beach House Resort Timeshare is number 65 on the Sell My Timeshare NOW HOT 100 List of timeshares that received the most offers to buy or rent.

Key West, Florida has been an ‘escape-to’ destination for generations, and the Hyatt Beach House Resort timeshare gives you plenty of reasons to choose it for your own great escape. This Key West timeshare offers a relaxed and slightly reclusive hideaway that is perfect for vacations now, and for many years to come.

Spanish Kings first laid claim to Key West real estate. Explorers came, seeking the fountain of youth. Generations later, artists, writers, visionaries, and even expatriates called it their home, including John Audubon, Ernest Hemingway, Thomas Edison, and Tennessee Williams.

Getting to Your Key West Timeshare Vacation

While many travelers think that Key West is just beyond Miami, Key West is actually more than 150 miles south and west of metropolitan Miami. If you are headed to your Key West timeshare by car, don’t expect to clip along US Highway 1 (an official Florida Scenic Highway) at 70 miles an hour. Schedule time to allow you to stop and enjoy the sights along the way from Key Largo to Marathon to Big Pine Key.

Another fun way to arrive at Key West is via the Key West Express, which operates high-speed passenger ferries from Ft. Myers Beach and Marco Island to the Key West Bight Ferry Terminal, located in the city’s historic Seaport District. Plan about 3.5 hours to make the trip by ferry or you can schedule your air travel directly into the Key West International Airport.

Key West Timeshares Will Have You Living on Island Time

When you vacation in Key West, you are truly living on island time. While the island’s roads accommodate automobiles, there are also trolleys, bicycles, and walking paths for leisurely touring the shops and restaurants.

The timeshare units at the Hyatt Beach House timeshare resort are 2 bedroom and 2 bath units with approximately 1000 square feet of living space that is designed to accommodate 6 to 8 people comfortably. Each timeshare unit offers a screened balcony, with a television, VCR/DVD/and CD player.

Bedrooms have a King bed and whirlpool tub, and there is a Queen sleeper sofa in the living area. Kitchens are fully equipped with a microwave/convection oven and a dishwasher. Washers and dryers, data ports, and high-speed internet are also available.

While there’s a pool for relaxing and a beach to enjoy, don’t expect your Hyatt Beach House Resort timeshare vacation to be high energy and a whirl of activities—that’s just not the way things are done in Key West.

You don’t have to do much reading, talking, or thinking about buying timeshare before the question inevitably comes up, “Is timeshare an investment property?”

According to the Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, the word ‘investment’ in its true sense refers strictly to matters of money. And it is a very rare thing for a timeshare to increase in value above the price you paid to purchase it – especially if you purchase it as new property.

Yet, in everyday use, we often speak of investing our time, our talents, or our emotions, into something that does not yield a financial return, but does benefit us in other ways. And in this regard, timeshares and timeshare resales definitely can be beneficial and rewarding in our lives.

What Drives Up the Cost of New Timeshares

If you have ever been to a developer’s traditional timeshare sales presentation, or have talked to others who have, then you already know how that game is played. You agree to listen to what the timeshare sales representative or representatives have to say; perhaps you tour a timeshare property and you see a video presentation about the timeshare resort. In return for your time, you are rewarded with a perk. Depending upon how long the timeshare presentation is and/or the size of the timeshare sales company with which you are dealing, your ‘reward’ can be anything from a free lunch to several days comped (or discounted) at a timeshare resort.

Imagine what a new pair of shoes would cost if every time someone went in the store and tried on a pair, that person received a gift. Think about how pricey a new home would be if every interested home buyer or looker was given free tickets to Disney just for stopping by to tour the house.

The business model used in the sale of new timeshare is certainly unique, and apparently works, because timeshare sales have increased consistently, year-in-year out. But clearly, the cost of all the free gifts that are given to the people who never buy timeshare is built into the sales price of new timeshare, and is borne by those people who do buy timeshare. It is very hard for timeshare property to appreciate when it carries with it such high front-end marketing costs.

But Buying Timeshare Can Still Be the Smartest Move You Ever Made

Okay, so you probably won’t ‘make’ money on the purchase of a timeshare you buy from a developer. But that doesn’t mean you can’t truly benefit from buying timeshare. Timeshare locks-in the cost of your vacation accommodations for as long as you own your timeshare, whether that is years, decades, or a lifetime. Certainly, in that way, buying timeshare is a valid hedge against vacation inflation.

Absolutely nothing makes vacation planning easier than owning timeshare. In today’s busy world, where husband and wife are both dealing with the demands of jobs and family, it is often the case that no one has time to hunt out a vacation deal or shop for the right hotel accommodations. Owning timeshare eliminates this problem entirely. Mark the days on your calendar, book a flight or gas up the car, and start your vacation. Timeshare ownership eliminates vacation planning hassle, and lets you and your family relax and enjoy … which is what a vacation should be all about.

I guess the bottom line is that some investments, don’t come wrapped in dollar signs, and timeshare is one of them. But don’t shortchange the idea of owning timeshare by overlooking all the value they can bring to your quality of life. Click on the video below to hear some additional thoughts about the benefits and realities of owning timeshare.

By the way, if you are ever attending a timeshare sales presentation, and someone tries to tell you what a good investment timeshares are, you should exit, immediately. That’s a major red flag that you are dealing with someone who will tell you anything (even a lie) in order to sell timeshare.
