We have the Disney Vacation Club which is a very different kind of timeshare. For us it works well. We wanted to be able to go to FL a couple times a year but don't necessarily want to become snowbirds upon retirement and we didn't want the hassle of owning property there and having to maintain it. Plus, we LOVE Disneyworld. For us it's been great. We get in two good trips a year and the rest of the time we do small weekend trips to NH, ME or VT. Last year we did a week in Vegas as well. We can also uses our Disney one to go other places, but haven't yet.
