Vacation Club Rentals and Timeshare differences

(
Wikipedia encyclopedia) Consumers unfamiliar with the concept of a vacation club rental may confuse it with the seemingly similar, but distinctly different, timeshare. A Vacation Club rental is a term in the travel industry meaning renting out a fully furnished cabin, cottage or home on a temporary basis to tourists as an alternative to a hotel. Vacation Club rentals are becoming increasingly popular because of the privacy and total vacation cost savings. A timeshare is a piece of real estate-often a condominium-that is jointly shared by multiple owners. While different types of timeshare ownerships exist, in general, each owner bears a portion of the responsibility, along with the right to a segment of time in which he or she is granted sole use of the property.

A Vacation Club rental is a fully furnished property, such as a cabin, condominium, cottage or family-style home. However, a true vacation rental is not for sale to the guest; rather, the property owner of the vacation rental merely allows the guest to rent the property for a predetermined length of time. For some guests, the benefits of vacation rentals offering more space (multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, separate living areas), more amenities (fully equipped kitchens, fireplaces, outdoor patios with BBQ's, some with private hot tubs), and convenient locations (close to the lake, skiing/snowboarding) make it the right choice for vacationing. Vacation Club rentals also provide greater privacy than a hotel.

In North America, most cabins or cottages are used for weekend or vacation getaways by city dwellers. These cabins and cottages are generally located close to lakes in forested areas or the by the ocean. They are used as a place to spend holidays with friends and family; close to activities including  snow skiing and  snowboarding, swimming, canoeing and kayaking, waterskiing,  fishing,  hiking, and  sailing'.
