My husband was able to fix the problem I'd been having with RCI's website...and just in time! I came home today to see a week in a 1 BR sleeps 6 at Smuggs for the week school gets out. This morning it was $699....this afternoon....$239! SCORE!!!!

It is a Sunday checkin, and we'll go over Monday after school. Wondering if anyone knows which buildings have Sunday check in. (Trying to figure out which building we might be in.) RCI is less than helpful about that. Will call Smuggs as well...but with the points stuff, people are coming and going all days of the week, so it's not as clear as it used to be.

ANYWAY...I know that Evergreen is Saturday. I believe Tamaracks are Friday. Balsams are Sunday. I think Sycamores are Saturday as well. Thanks for any info you can give!

YAY!!!! I get to go to Smuggs again this year!!!!!! ;) Have I said how much I love timesharing?

Edited to add: Just got hold of a helpful person at RCI. We have Sycamores 49 as of now, though of course, it's not guaranteed. YAY!!!!!!!!!

Congrats! Smuggs has the 1-4 rule for particular weeks (1-12, 24-35 and 51-52). Not sure if you fall within those weeks - but keep an eye on your account just in case.

I stayed there via RCI two summers in a row and when I called to question, smuggs said they had no problem and would not enforce as long as RCI let them go through. They were both Last Minute - so I assume that is why RCI let it happen.

I'll watch. Last year's trip was an exchange, and this one is an extra vacation. I think this applies to exchanges....so I'm not terribly worried...but I'll keep an eye. This particular week is kind of early, especially this year with our snowy winter. Hopefully it will all work out!
