Wyndham Fairfield Mts vs Sapphire Mts NC

[mcdonaldcrs]

I am looking at purchasing points at a Wyndham resort in NC. Has anyone stayed at both Fairfield Mts and Sapphire Mts? If so which resort did you prefer? Also considering purchasing points at a resort in TN, where I can possibily get more points for $$.

FF Glade and FF Smoky Mtns in TN are both very nice resorts with low maint. fees. We own at both.

The biggest is not WHERE you buy, but HOW MUCH it costs. You could buy a low (price/point) resort in one state, never go to that one, while enjoying better resorts elsewhere.

I haven't stayed at Sapphire Valley, but I have stayed at Mountains. Both of these resorts are what is called "campus style". That means that the buildings are spread out, not clustered together. You need a car to get to the lake and activity complex from the condos.
Only two of the sections are managed by Wyndham (Mountain Loft & Maple Ridge). Mountain Loft is closest to the activities. VRI manages others, maybe all of the rest. The activity complex has another management company.

I am going to Fairfield, and I was wondering if the fireplaces are actual fireplaces or if they are gas/electric. I have a bunch of fire logs, but don't want to bring any if the fireplaces won't take them.
