Orange
Lake Announces New Resort Locations
Orlando-based
timeshare expands in 25 th Anniversary year
ORLANDO,
FLORIDA—March 21, 2007— Celebrating their 25 th Anniversary with
more than 110,000 owners, Orange Lake has branched out from their
single-site flagship resort in Orlando, FL to a multi-site family
of resorts. The company is proud to announce brand new locations
in Vermont and Florida, just 8 months after expanding to the Midwest.
The
first of The Family of Orange Lake Resorts' acquisitions was in
Lake Geneva, Wisconsin at the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa®.
The acquisition of the remaining Marcus Vacation Club inventory
is great news to thousands
of Chicagoland-area Orange Lake owners, who now have the ability
to take a short drive to enjoy award-winning golf courses, distinctive
restaurants and lounges, horseback riding, downhill skiing and a
sophisticated spa.
Their
New England location—Orange Lake Vermont, with access to Ascutney
Mountain Resort's amenities—offers outdoor enthusiasts a scenic
escape for all seasons. This Northeastern getaway is nestled between
snowcapped mountains and rugged terrain. During winter months, visitors
can enjoy 57 on-site trails for alpine and cross-country skiing,
snowboarding & snow tubing, a Learning Center, Nordic Center
and Young Olympian Ski Camps. For those who prefer to stay warm,
the resort offers a state-of-the-art spa, a cinema, an arcade for
family fun, The Mountainside Lounge and more! During warmer
months, owners will enjoy hiking, bike riding and other outdoor
activities in the surrounding areas.
Most
recently, The Family of Orange Lake Resorts chose to revisit their
roots in the same state as their flagship location. Their
new Panama City destination is the perfect golfer's getaway. Orange
Lake recently purchased 18 units from Bay Point Resort in Panama
City, which offers 1,100 acres of natural beauty on a wildlife sanctuary
overlooking St. Andrew's Bay. With
access to all of Bay Point Resort's amenities, Orange Lake Panama
City on Florida's Emerald Coast is an all-seasons golfer's paradise
with championship courses. In addition, this expansive resort offers
a state-of-the-art spa & fitness center, a
marina, deep-water boat slip and more.
Visiting
these new resort locations is simple for Orange Lake owners because
of GlobalAccess™. Members now have the best of all vacation
worlds through this points-based exchange program, which offers
them the ability to use their fixed-week vacation or exchange their
vacation for shorter stays at multiple locations within The Family
of Orange Lake Resorts and Resort Condominiums International's (RCI®)
network of more than 3,700 resorts.
Members also have access to Partner alliances and can take advantage
of cruises, air travel, car rentals and more.
Located
next door to Walt Disney World® Resort, Orange Lake's flagship
location in Orlando was established in 1982 by Holiday Inn®
Founder, Kemmons Wilson. It is comprised of four unique resort villages
on 1,250 acres.
The
company plans to continue the expansion of their resort network
and is actively seeking more growth opportunities to continue being
the "home-away-from-home" to more than 110,000 owners
from all 50 U.S. states and more than 120 countries.
