No option to change this on an Internal Exchange.Per the Owner: The very first time we visited the Massanutten Resort we weren’t expecting what we were about to see. Driving along the winding roads towards the resort we were amazed by the sceneries. As soon as we entered the resort premises, we were in awe of its natural beauty along with some striking structures. One of the main attractions is the massive indoor/outdoor water park. You can easily spend a day or two enjoying the spiraling slides, high speed ones; multiple bubbling baths indoors and a lazy river ride; even an indoor surfing experience. The air we breathe felt clean and fresh. I was so surprised that there was no trace of pesky insects (mosquitoes, flies, gnats, sand fleas, etc) that could have ruined our stay. This experience is the same for the whole resort and even in the Shenandoah national park area itself. Kayaking and tubing along the Shenandoah River (3 miles) takes about 3-5 hours and you’ll enjoy every minute of it. There are multiple indoor and outdoor swimming pools in various resort areas. A multi sport gym with racket ball, basketball and family adventure park are part of the resort. There are numerous activities (hiking, fishing, wine tasting, horseback riding, carriage rides, etc) and sports (go kart racing, mini golf, street curling, pickleball, etc). Driving around the resort area it's normal to see a herd of deer grazing on the pastures along the sides of the roads or even the parking lots. This is truly an amazing place, and we had an unforgettable experience. There are so much more to do in Massanutten Resort especially in the wintertime. If you’re an avid skier or snowboarder this can be your annual ski trip. There are also ice skating and snow tubing.*Closing costs and transfer fees are to be paid by the buyer**Buyer to pay maintenance fees for first year of usage*

More information on our formula...
Hotels usually sleep 2 adults per room, whereas the average timeshare units offer multiple private bedrooms, sleeper sofas and sometimes even bunk beds - adding value not calculated here. Timeshare properties are condo style units that contain all of the comforts of home... and then some!
Hotel total cost includes a 10% hotel tax whereas the average U.S. hotel tax is currently around 13.4%.
Timeshare total cost includes an increase in maintenance dues each year of 3%, as well as an estimated $1,000 in closing and transfer costs. These are estimated and will vary by state, county and resort.
Total savings does not take into consideration the added benefit of a timeshare unit having a spacious living room, washer and dryer, dining room and full kitchen, all of which add value and potential savings when you have the option to do your own laundry and enjoy a home cooked meal instead of dining out.
