Which Exchange Company For Hot Springs Week?

[bigeyes1]

I am fixing to close on a Fixed (white) week 20 at Escapes to Hot Springs Village. Since this resort is dual-affiliated, I am trying to decide on which exchange company will be the best.

Does anyone have any personal experience for a Hot Springs Week deposit? Which exchange company do you prefer and why?

Btw, SFX is out. They won't accept this resort.

Thanks.

I don't have direct experience with HSV, other than doing a bonus week to that area in 1990.

Historically, II has been very weak in the Heart of America. When we started, they did not even have a resort in Branson. Although they have played a pretty good catch-up game, I still get the sense that RCI is what more folks use to come to God's Country.

II, with their Miami base, had always had an exotic, more upscale, foreign slant, IMHO.

That's what I kind of figured. I was hoping since II didn't have many resorts in "God's Country", they would value any HS' weeks a little bit more.

Thank ya much!!

I have deposited my Hot Springs weeks with TPI (No membership fees and reasonable exchange fees. Also you are not penalized for being a white week). TPI exchanges like for like in sleeping accommodations.

Thanks so much for the info. I completely forgot about Trading Places. I'll have to take a look at their website.

Thanks, again.

Don't own hot springs but since you live in Texas if you want to trade to Texas timeshares I would look into RCI. II never has anything I would trade to. Most Hill country or San Antonio resorts trade through RCI.

Oh, I want to trade into other resorts besides Texas. I've lived in Texas all my life. There's so much more to see beyond this big ol' state.

I guess II is out. Now I'm contemplating between RCI and TPI. Heck, the way things are picking up with Redweek, I may even deposit the HS week there.


Thanks for all the advice. It really helps.
