I agree and even though we have been aware of and looking at the website and videos for 14 years now, there is no substitute for actually trying it before making the decision to buy. We have been there 2 times this year for a week at a time and plan on visiting at different times of the year for the next 3 years. I will let you all now when we are comng so we can get guest passes

Then we will rent for 6-12 months. By the end of the rental, we should be pretty sure this is where we want to retire.
The first time we were there this year we met a couple who had come down on the preview for the first time for 5 days with no intention of buying. Well, they ended up buying and movng to TV within a month ! I was amazed that somebody could make such a life changing decision so quickly but everyone is wired differently.
