What Is Vacation Ownership?
Vacation Ownership, also known as timeshare, is a shared vacation property designation where ownership or usage rights are divided among several Vacation Owners, for dedicated periods. They are popular in destinations where buyers desire recurring access to a property without the expense of full ownership. Vacation Owners receive the right to use the property exclusively for a specific period each year, often in one-week increments. This model is commonly used for resorts and condominiums.
Vacation Ownership offers a smart and cost-effective alternative to the expenses of second-home ownership and the unpredictability of vacation rental costs. Unlike owning a second home, which entails a significant upfront investment, ongoing maintenance, property taxes, and seasonal upkeep, Vacation Ownership provides access to luxurious accommodations without the financial burden of sole ownership. Compared to vacation rentals, where rising rates and availability can complicate travel plans, Vacation Ownership ensures consistent quality, affordability, and the ability to plan vacations easily. It’s the perfect solution for those seeking to maximize their leisure time while maximizing value.
Affordable Alternative to Frequent Vacations
- According to Forbes, an average vacation can cost between $2,000 and $4,000 for many families.
- Over years of travel, these costs can add up significantly, especially when accounting for lodging, dining, and entertainment.
- By investing in Vacation Ownership, you secure consistent accommodations in a high-demand destination while minimizing annual vacation expenses.
- This predictable model makes planning easier and reduces the strain on travel budgets.
2nd Home Without The Hassle
Cost Advantages over 2nd Homes
- Purchasing and maintaining a second home includes significant expenses such as property taxes, utility bills, and ongoing maintenance, which can cost tens of thousands annually.
- Vacation ownership at Eastern Slope Inn allows you to enjoy a dedicated unit without the heavy financial and logistical burdens.
- Additionally, owners avoid the unpredictable costs of upkeep often associated with seasonal homes, such as snow removal or emergency repairs, as the resort handles these.
Prime Location & Year-Round Amenities

- Owners enjoy access to luxurious amenities like our indoor pool, hot tubs, clay tennis courts, and scenic trails—all included without extra fees, adding value to every stay.
Flexible Ownership
- Choose between a Fixed Weeks or an RCI Points-Based Ownership model, offering customization to fit your vacation schedule.
- You gain a “home away from home” without long-term obligations or upkeep.
Fixed Weeks
- A Fixed Week period timeshare gives a Vacation Owner the right to exclusively use the property for a specific week or weeks each year. The main advantage is that the buyer can plan an annual vacation at the same time every year.
RCI Points
- Resorts Condominium International (RCI) is a Points-based timeshare system. Usage rights are represented by points, which vary based on factors like resort location, unit size, and vacation dates. These points can be used to access one or multiple resort properties within the RCI Network. Owners can exchange their points within our resorts (internal exchange) or with other resorts (external exchange.) This system offers more flexibility in vacation choices, including the time of year, size of unit, and location.
Rental Income Opportunity
When you’re not planning to use your timeshare, you can rent it out to generate extra income. This offsets ownership costs while making your investment work for you. The resort supports rental programs, simplifying the process and ensuring your unit remains occupied and maintained.
