I got this email from Wyndham. Two problems. I do not own at the Resort. In fact I do not own any Wyndham Resorts or Wyndham Points. Also I am not the addressee. I have no idea why this email showed up.

I believe on the bankruptcy proxy they mentioned suspension of 2026 dues. At least they did for Fairfield glade if memory serves correct. Others here would know.

They said the same for OIRC. Maintenance fees for 2026 would not be billed and would be refunded if already paid.

I have no answers but that email is an attachment to Post #3,696. I think you can safely delete it.

Thanks for posting the BB pics @HitchHiker71 and @Sandi Bo ! Because of your pics I just shuffled some reservations to maximize our time there in late November and December. Jiminy's "Team Snowmageddon" usually does a great job getting some base going on a few runs to ski on for Black Friday, fingers crossed they work their magic again this year!

You know if they can make it happen, they will!!! Regardless, such an awesome area. I grew up about 1.5 hours south of there, but this past visit was my first to the "Bridge of Flowers" (I know, not on your list for Nov/Dec) but the pot holes are there, too. I never knew. Such a neat area!! And I finally made it to the top of the War Memorial on Mount Greylock Enjoy your visits!!!

 

[Sandi Bo]

My apologies......not sure why that is happening...
Please try this one and let me know if it is correct.
I am clicking on the attachment and it does go to the correct PDF

Too bad the don't specifically state if the CWA trade will be developer or resale (or dependent on what type of points you currently owned). Seems pretty significant to me, no way I'd want to make an assumption either way. @HitchHiker71 did they ever speak directly/specifically to that? (And no skin in the swap game for me, just a curious bystander watching a train wreck ).

They have said it would stay dev your points are dev, or be resale if your points were resale.

Sandi Bo and I both missed that but it's the only thing that makes sense (which I know is not dispositive where Wyndham is concerned).

That's how I understand the situation at Shawnee, at least for the HOAs that have had meetings so far. I'm waiting to get an email or letter officially notifying us of the results of the vote. There's also supposed to be a website created that will let us keep track of the bankruptcy process. Waiting for that also...

So I have not been able to obtain the voting documents for Star Island from anyone on the Wyndham Timeshare Owners Facebook group (even though I have posted asking several people) as I was interested in the exact wording of them. I had seen posts of some $6M needed for improvements but no detailed breakdown of it.

I don't see anything about it on the Coming Soon page for Margaritaville Resorts (not vacation club). Though AI seemed to indicate that one was planned for the Poconos with an opening in 2024 but construction hasn't started. It could possibly be like Nashville where it could have a couple floors of Margaritaville Vacation Club units, or it could be like Pigeon Forge where Wyndham has some units for some time until a certain arrangement ended. It could be also like Atlanta and not have any access for Club Wyndham owners at all even though it is a Margaritaville Vacation Club. Then it is most likely just a Margaritaville Resort and not related to Wyndham at all. Which is most likely.

Even better than AI is an actual article: https://www.abc27.com/pennsylvania/...ioners-feeling-like-theyre-in-margaritaville/

tl;dr is that the development will include a hotel, RV park, and tiny home bungalows. No mention of a vacation club location - which is the case for the vast majority of Margaritaville announcements (because the non-vacation club offerings outnumber the vacation club locations by at least 5 to 1).

AI likely summarized its information from this and other similar articles.

And I just clicked the link in the article and it's dead, redirects to the main Margaritaville resorts page. The last time it was archived was in August, so here it is for posterity: https://web.archive.org/web/2025081...s.com/margaritaville-village-pocono-mountains

So that doesn't bode well for the resort even happening at all.

 

[shawnee83]

Looks like this will be in the Pocono Summit area (if it ever comes to pass) which is maybe 30 minutes west of Shawnee, close to the massive Kalahari resort complex. Although there is no mention of Margaritaville Vacation Club, there are a couple of things that sound kinda timeshare-ish, such as townhomes and cottages.

That Margaritaville organization is just as complicated and confusing as Wyndham.

Looks like this idea has been floating around for some time; here's an article from May 2022 saying it will be "opening soon:"

@HitchHiker71 can you ask Wyndham in your next weekly meeting for a copy of the Star Island information presented by Wyndham (or the HOA) in regards to the bankruptcy as well as is there a detailed breakdown of the $6M needed for improvements for Star Island?
