I stay at the Holiday Inn Timber Creek in DeSoto, MO every year when we go to MO. We always go in the summer...typically late July. I've been able to book in through RCI with an extra vacation for years and years. Some years, I can even book two units. (Last year, I did that...worked out great to have a spot for my parents to come visit.) While a nice place, this resort isn't close to ANYTHING! It's almost an hour to St. Louis, it's nowhere near Branson or Lake of the Ozarks....it works for us, because it's 40 minutes from my parents. But for the typical tourist, it wouldn't be a destination. This year, I haven't seen one thing in RCI. I ended up reserving through Holiday Inn Club Vacations (you don't have to be a member to book with cash) and it's going to be VERY pricey...over 1K for a week's stay. (I've been used to paying around $450 for one unit for a week.) For 2023, I see one week for summer, in early July, for exchange only....which would mean that I'd have to bank my two weeks at my owned resorts in New England. Not what I really want to do. Anyhow, what's changed in Holiday Inn Land? And should I just go ahead and nab the 2023 week while I see it? I don't want to have to book through Holiday Inn again next year. Thanks for any insight you folks have to offer!
