My favorite trip by far is to Orlando, which is not close to home at all. I would never buy there, either, even though it is the place we visit the most.
I would consider a mini-points system like Bluegreen to stay at The Fountains, but then I would miss Vacation Village at Parkway, Cypress Pointe, the Marriotts, the Hiltons, Summer Bay, the list goes on and on. So why should I buy, when I can exchange into those places for under $600.
We probably will not stay at our home resorts in again, one is in Summit County, one hour from our door to our unit 109C. We can drive up there anytime we want and visit for a day. Boring.
