This summer we rented a last minute 2 bedroom Fairway Villa Marriott in New Jersey for $525. We reside in Connecticut so the drive was more than reasonable. We don't fly so the closer the better. It was the free activities and the spa that turned me on to Marriott. I am a SAHM with three little girls and my husband is a second year teacher. So we only travel during peak times summer, Christmas break, President's week, and April vacation. We can leave at the drop of a hat during those times. Peak purchase time wouldn't be affordable at this time. We have also purchased eoy Massanutten but haven't used it yet. That's a long drive so I wouldn't mind a place near there to make it into two weeks but it isn't needed. I would like a lock off for possibly two deposits? We would probably want to own east coast and travel mostly east coast or within 15 hours. I read about some people on the other coast using Flex change with bronze and silver traders. Any suggestions on what I should buy and how to use it for the best bang for my buck.
