over 102,000 this week!

Folks are definitely discussing or even thinking about travel less and less as COVID continues to disrupt just about everything in 2020 :(

Definitely no where the normal travelers this year/so far.....less people googling a timeshare a developer is trying to sell.

Of course, we are all missing traveling - many discussions on it and COVID, how it has effected all of us in life besides the travel portion.

Nice to come here to discuss, get distracted & still read about some that have been able to travel and are planning on doing so.

Nice Number regardless!!!!!! :)

Marriott Canyon Villas at Desert Ridge
We bought our timeshare at Marriott Canyon Villas in April 2002, before the place was even built out. Don't know what year I found you, but the first "bookmark" for Tugg was TuggBBS, and enjoy reading about other's experiences and adventures. Have enjoyed our MVC week and found it so easy in the early days to rent additional weeks rather than buying more, never got into the points systems.I read this site every couple of days and have decided we will probably try to sell our week in next couple of years. Of course, we lost our April 2020 week completely and the insurance did not help, but for 2021 we exchanged for MR in the hope that by next fall we can take a few trips and use up our huge number of Marriott Rewards points. Looking forward to returning in April 2022 to Phoenix.

There has never been a better way to learn about timeshare. People are so incredibly helpful here. I joined in 2005 and have always been impressed with the knowledge shared here by those who know their systems so well. It's been a godsend. Thank you Brian and thanks to your dad for fulfilling this need for those of us who love timeshare.

The reviews are incredibly helpful. For those who do not write them, please consider spending a few minutes writing reviews for your stays. It helps me decide if I want to stay in a particular place or if I want to find something better. I write lots of them. It's something I can do.
