I really like what HGVC has done in Manhattan and DC, this gives so much more value to our timeshares, and great opportunities ($) at these mayor cities. With that said, I wish more mayor cities had timeshares like these. Madrid, London, Paris...

Places I would like to stay in a TS but not necessarily own at: Anything in Hoi An or the central coast of Vietnam, Singapore, coastal Kenya, Zanzibar/Seychelles/Maldives, Czech Republic (a spa town would be good), Denmark. Close to home I'd like some higher-end choices in WA, OR and British Columbia. There are some places I don't really want to Airbnb or be in a private apartment (i.e. East Africa) and want a concierge desk and security.

Hilton has started clearing the land for a new one in Charleston. Bluegreen has two. And there's the Inn on Church St. All downtown.

I would love to see a timeshare built in the Finger Lakes region of New York or further north near Waterdown New York. The Pittsburgh - Cleveland area would be good too. It would be great to have more timeshares near major cities anywhere in the world but I know land is very expensive. If they were even an hours drive or train ride from a major city we would still use it as a base to explore.

What is it like there? What is there to do?

This is my favorite place in the world to visit..
Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore
Wine Tasting (tour wine country)
Microbreweries
Dining (they really specialize in farm to table)
Outdoor Recreation
Bask in the Sun at Traverse City Beaches
Visit Traverse City Lighthouses

I love having the screen open at night and sleeping to the waves crashing against the shoreline.
