A few in S and VA, a single resort in NC, MD, PA, and UT, plus Jamaica and the Bahamas
In addition to the acquisition or conversion of Fairfield, along the way various existing resorts have made agreements with Wyndham to sell unsold inventory and to manage the resorts. Smugglers Notch and Shawnee are two such resorts that have come into the Wyndham fold in that way. There are still plenty of owners who have elected not to convert to Wyndham points. All inventory that Wyndham sells at the resort or adds into Access along with converted weeks remain in Wyndham inventory regardless of what happens in the future.

Resorts like Foxrun and Coconut Malorie resort in OC, MD had enough non Wyndham owners who decided that they wanted to discontinue the relationship with Wyndham that the board was able to vote them out and go with a different management company.

It is very unlikely that a purpose built Wyndham resort would be able to vote Wyndham out.

In many cases with a sold out resort, the current owners are happy with how they have been using their home resort, and when Wyndham comes in, the current owners have no interest in acquiring Wyndham points. Especially when there is a high fee to do so, and it may actually reduce their home ownership rights.

For instance - I own 7 Ocean Front weeks at Wyndham Kauai Beach Villas. If I converted them to Wyndham points, I would lose my priority to reserve my ocean front weeks: I would not be able to make my reservations as early as I do now.

I have no need for Wyndham points at this time, so converting doesn't interest me, and the high cost is ridiculous.

*If I could keep my (same) home resort reservation priority, and if it was inexpensive to convert to points, I'd at least consider it. In other words: I want to have my cake and eat it too! :D

I guess you should understand your HOA besides the system they are in. The older ones anyways

I wanted to try to figure out why foxrun pulled out of Wyndham. When that's why we bought there in the
80's they went with VRI. We bought points.

When you go onto the Club Wyndham website look for Wyndham at Fairfield Mountains. Lake Lure, NC. Under "unit information" you will see units for Fairways on the Mountains and Fox Run.

Only Maple Ridge and Mountain Loft are managed by Wyndham and VIP benefits apply to these two areas only.

I have decided that it was pretty much a click. And felt they could do it better. One thing they forgot, still had to pay for club house and golf course.

One other thing I have noticed is that II is, from the post here, offering bonus weeks to fox run. Guess it didn't work to well.
This move put them at the bottom 20% of timeshares.
