Playtime Points – Use extra points for dining.

Playtime Points are one of the InnSeason Vacation Club Members benefits. You are able to purchase dinner certificates with your Vacation Club Points. Many owners find that they have extra points after vacationing and this benefit allows those points to be used in a way that enhances their vacation. They purchase dining certificates at popular restaurants, located near our Vacation Club resorts. To check it our further, login in to your account through “Owners Inn” at: www.InnSeason.com.

On your “Contract Details” page, click on the “Playtime Points Requests” navigation in the left hand column. You’ll be directed to the Playtime Points Overview page.  Please read the “Rules and Regulations.”  You may only use Current Use Year Points and they are deducted immediately, at the time of the transaction.  And remember, all orders are final!

Next, click on the “New Requests” tab. You’ll see a list of restaurants sorted by region. Currently, we offer restaurants near our resorts.  Click on the row with the restaurant of your choice and a box will popup allowing you to purchase Gift Cards. Ordering one will purchase $50 in Restaurant Gift Cards, ordering four will purchase $200 worth. $50 is the minimum purchase.

The cards will be ordered and sent directly to you at the address we have on file for your account. You will receive an email notification when the transaction is complete.

The card use rules are determined by the restaurant.  The Points will be deducted from your account right away so, you are free to use the certificates as soon as you receive them.

Please email any comments to playtimepoints@innseason.com so we can correct any issues or clarify the process for other owners. We hope you enjoy this new convenience, and we look forward to your comments.

June 30th is the Accrual Deadline.

REMINDER.  June 30th is the accrual deadline. Don’t lose point value. Accrue.

We encourage you to take the time to accrue right now. It’s quick and easy!
You can still plan and book your vacations with your points. They don’t change. (But they will expire on 12/31/18 and acting now ensures that won’t happen.)

 

WHAT ARE ACCRUED POINTS?

Accrued Points are points that are not used (the balance left in your account on 12/31) in the current Use Year and are saved (carried over) to the following Use Year, and subject to different booking windows.

If you are unable to use all or some of your points during the Use Year, you MUST notify us by June 30th so that the full balance of your remaining points may be accrued for use in the next Use Year.

How do I Save/Accrue Points?

• Points may be accrued for one Use Year only. (For example – Use Year Points from 2018 can only be accrued to 2019.)
• You must submit an Accrual Form by June 30th to guarantee the accrual of any unused points into the following Use Year.
• You may continue to use your points and, since the form is submitted, any remaining balance will be accrued
• If you are unable to log in, you may call Owner Services at 855-501-3003 and they will submit a form on your behalf.

HOW DO I ACCRUE MY POINTS?

Login, login, login. 

In order to save 100% of your unused 2018 points from this year to 2019, we have to be notified prior to June 30.

Please login to “Owner’s Inn” (www.InnSeason.com) and review your account and our online accrual forms as soon as you receive this email.

Remember, you may continue to use your points to book vacations after sending in the accrual request form. The balance will be accrued as of 12/31.

To Accrue:

1. Online: Login to “Owner’s Inn” and complete the online Accrual Form or print out a form to fax or mail to: InnSeason Vacation Club, 75 Perseverance Way, Hyannis, MA 02601 (Here’s a link to our login guide.)
2. Email:  vacationclub@innseason.com
3. Fax: (508) 957-1808

Have you checked the Bonus Week list lately?

Bonus Weeks are available to all InnSeason Owners: Traditional Timeshare Owners and InnSeason Vacation Club Owners. Weeks (like those pictured below) are available for purchase with Vacation Club Points (accrued points are eligible) or Cash.

The weeks come to us from various sources and occasionally we will offer weeks that are available in our own inventory at reduced rates. They are available on a first come first served basis…and can be booked online. Once the week is reserved our Owner’s Services team will confirm with the resort that you booked at and get confirmation information to you. So we suggest waiting for that confirmation before booking flights or making travel plans.

To start exploring, log in to Owner’s Inn!

Below are screen shots of the “New Request” tab, so you get an idea of the variety of vacations offered. (the links are not real!)  To see the complete list and book – log in to InnSeasons.com – Owner’s Inn.

The trick with bonus weeks is to grab them when you see them. Confirm your rental then book your flight. If you have questions, our Owner’s Services Team will be more than happy to help.

Try something unique this summer.

Mountainview Resort in Jackman, ME.  Everyone wants their family vacation to be a memorable time together that you remember with laughs over the Christmas Dinner table.  We have a suggestion. Escape to northern Maine and spend some quality time together.

Jackman is a town in Somerset County, Maine, United States. The population was 862 at the 2010 census, but there is plenty to do, and plenty of space to do it in!

Hiking
There are trails for everyone. A popular “moderate” trail is Sally Mountain, described as “Good hike with excellent views of Attean Lake. Two mile walk on train tracks followed by 1.6 mile wooded trail to the top that becomes relatively steep near the summit. Total elevation gain was about 1100ft. Plenty of rocky areas at the top to have a snack or view the surrounding lakes and mountains.”  Sounds like the perfect family excursion.   And there are more. See the list at: http://www.jackmanmaine.org/maine-hiking.php.  For example:  Moxie Falls, One of the highest set of falls in New England: the main drop is over 80 feet, which plummets into a deep slate gorge. (Very easy, .6 mile)

ATV/Four Wheeling
ATV riding has grown in popularity in the past few years and you will find some of the best ATV trails in Maine in the Jackman-Moose River Region; over 300+ miles that will take you through unspoiled wilderness and on up to scenic vistas. From Jackman you can ride south to the Forks, east toward Rockwood and as of July 21, 2007, you can go north across the Canadian border into Quebec, offering you even more places to explore. Check out the Border Riders Club for maps and info.

Fishing
Whatever type of fishing experience you are looking for, the numerous lakes, streams and rivers in the Jackman-Moose River Region can offer hours of fishing enjoyment for the beginner or the experienced angler. You are sure to catch brook trout, Lake trout, land locked Salmon, and splake in our waters, that is, of course, depending on your luck. The fishing season in this region goes through the end of September with some restrictions on the brooks and streams.

Using the online reservation system.

We constantly encourage Club Members to use the online reservation system because it really does help people plan and go on vacation. We know that it was easier to just show up on Week 22 than it is to think about and plan your vacation. You just put a red line through those dates when you got your new calendar. And your job was done.

But, we know that you purchased or switched to our Vacation Club because you truly wanted more flexibility in your vacationing. Right? You wanted to escape for a mid-winter weekend. You dream about walking on the beach in the fall. The kids have grown up and you don’t want to go away in July. So take a hint from the experts:; Log on to The Owner’s Inn at http://www.InnSeason.com and let our wonderful reservation system help you find the perfect vacation. (If you haven’t logged in before there are printable login guides right there.)

The beauty of the online system is that it does the work for you. It sees how many points you have (assuming that you are paid up to date) and it knows the booking windows. You can look two ways (see below). Look based on your points…or simply look and see what is available. Sometimes just seeing that there is a weekend on the Cape in May…makes you decide to go to the Cape in May. (And trust us, in May you will be glad that you booked it ahead of time!).

See the little box at the bottom of the circled area. You can un-check and display even those units that are beyond your point reach. (You can reduce nights…or borrow points…or pay in advance if you want to take advantage of what you see.) Call Owner’s Services at 855-501-3003 to discuss your options. At least you will know what is available.

So if you haven’t used the system. (Once logged in you just click on your contract number and you’ll see the link on your overview page.) Just click and start looking.

Did you know…there is NO Guest Certificate Fee.

Unlike Exchange Companies which typically charge $50, the InnSeason Vacation Club has no guest certificate fee.. You can use your points to book a reservation for family or friends at an InnSeason Vacation Club Resort and there is no charge to put the reservation in their name. Make a reservation for someone you love (even use some expiring points) and call it a Christmas Present!
