I am thinking on taking a trip to the East Coast/New England with my sons (then 14 and 11) next summer (mid/late August to early September). We are fairly limited due to school vacations/flights as far as possible weeks is concerned.
So far I am thinking on spending around 5 to 7 days in New York City, 3 days in Boston and 3 days in Mystic, CT. I'd also like a week in Vermont or New Hampshire (Smugglers Notch looks really nice) and another week at the beach (probably either Maine or Cape Cod). Does that sound about right?
The resorts don't have to be fancy (though of course it is nice). Location and fun things to do for the kids are the main factor. The vacation would probably be a mix of timeshares and regular accomodation. I have one week deposited with SFX and see that they have Smugglers Notch listed in the directory (not sure though how much summer availability they have). Alternately, I could try to get a week in New York City via SFX (though I think five nights would be enough).
I also have the 2016 week which I haven't deposited yet. I could give it to SFX or try to get an exchange through VRI who seem to have a fair number of New England properties.
I would really appreciate any advice on nice places to stay or my best strategy as far as exchanging is concerned.
