Do I have to be an owner to stay in a timeshare in Gatlinburg?

No, you don’t have to be an owner to enjoy the benefits of a timeshare resort. You can, instead, rent it from the owner. For instance, when owners cannot travel to their timeshares, they will often advertise their timeshares for rent on the secondary market. They will usually price the rental for the same or similar cost of their annual maintenance fees. This allows guests to pay a more reasonable price with a rental which allows the owners to cover the cost of their maintenance fees instead of paying elevated seasonal prices set by the resort (which can sometimes add almost 70% to the cost of a rental). This can be a great way to vacation like a timeshare owner, while often enjoying the many amenities these resorts offer, without the obligation.
