John: What two owner controlled resorts do you own at?

We own at the Maui Schooner, an owner controlled resort, and are most pleased with the management. :cheer:

Mahalo,

Sorry, just saw this question. Cypress Pointe Resort, Orlando and Cove at Yarmouth, Cape Cod. No complaints about either.

Many years ago we realized that ownership in non-owner controlled resorts was ultimately giving up far too much control to those that saw it as a cash cow not our vacation ownership. We have pared our holdings down to two owner controlled resorts & are very happy with the results. We know where the money goes, who gets it & who runs the show.

Exactly the way I see it. Many years ago I also figured out that my 5 Developer controlled Time Share Weeks were not being managed in my best interest. I sold them all (overall I received more than I paid) and bought into 6 Independent HOA contolled Resorts using something less than 10% of the proceeds from my sales. When Father Time caught up to me and I decided Time Share travel was no longer in my future I managed to divest 5 of the 6 without a major hit to my pocket book. I've kept my 6th, a ski Week, for my Son's use.
