I have been with massanutten since 1970 when they were selling timeshares out of a trailer and there were only 3
Time share models. It is now one of the most popular timeshares on the east coast. It is a year round vacation resort in one of the most famous historical locations in the world. We have never had a problem with selling our weeks. This is just additional information for sales.
it has been my experience in the summit units that all are furnished the same and especially the units that sleep 12 with the lockout unit below. Also at the beginning of the year when we paid the annual fee we were given the opportunity of selecting a week of our choice for the year.

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.
