Join the Club!

Lake Tahoe
Considering a new or additional Perennial Vacation Club membership? Now is a perfect time to join! Here are just a few of the many benefits of membership:
  1. Our Club is debt-free. Without the burden of mortgages, or debts incurred for furniture or other upgrades, we can weather many storms that others simply can’t. We also remain on the lowest tier of maintenance fees among vacation clubs. How can we do this? As a non-profit club, we don’t have to support developers or larger enterprises, such as Marriott or Disney. We keep our focus on doing what we do best: helping our members create vacations that enrich their lives.
  2. As a member, you can always add additional nights (or even weeks) at any of our beautiful home resorts at extremely affordable rates!
  3. Our popular refer-a-friend program! Members receive a FREE bonus week AND free direct exchange or world bank, when they refer friends or family to us and they buy a membership.
  4. We’ve made excellent use of the current times to deep clean all of our units, inside and out. We’ve also been busy upgrading furniture, remodeling bathrooms and continuing to enhance our Wi-Fi.
  5. Most of our units offer full kitchens (and the handful of studios offer partial kitchens). We also offer outdoor grills, and the ability to borrow items such as slower cookers from the front desk.
  6. All of our locations offer a free lending library of movies and books. We also provide brand-new packs of playing cards (when available). There are lots of options for staying entertained!
  7. Most importantly, we take great pride in our award-winning staff, many of whom have been with us for years (even decades, in some cases).

Thinking of joining or adding an additional membership? Patricia, our Membership Development Director, would love to tell you more and help you find the best options for you!

Ready to plan your next adventure? We’re ready for you! Lately we’re receiving an increased number of calls for bookings, including extended stays and rentals. If you’re planning a visit, don’t delay! We can’t wait to welcome you!

You’ll be on a Perennial Vacation… it’s time to go out and play!

Summer in Bandera

Poolside in Bandera

Planning a trip to the Texas Hill Country this summer? Here are a few favorite events happening in July and August:

  • For July 4th, check out Robert Earl Keen’s 4th on the River. Located in Kerrville, this all-day event features live music, food and beer, bounce houses and the largest fireworks display in the Texas Hill Country.
  • The 3rd Saturday in July is Night in Old Fredericksburg, a summer evening of food, live music, an evening dance and a chili cook-off.
  • August 26th-29th is the annual Gillespie County Fair, the oldest county fair in Texas.

Or perhaps you’d enjoy tubing and kayaking on the Medina River, a visit to the San Antonio Zoo or the always popular Cowboys on Main in Bandera. How do you like to spend summer in the Hill Country?

Create a Travel Journal

 

One of the best ways to savor (and remember) your travel adventures is by creating a travel journal. Even if you don’t normally journal, having a record of the places you visit and the special moments you experience along the way ensures that you’ll never forget them.

Here are a few ideas for creating a travel journal:

  • Start before your vacation begins! A journal is a great place to keep notes on all the places you’re planning to visit, the restaurants you’d like to try, your packing list and any other thoughts or plans you have for your trip.
  • Choose a portable and convenient journal. This could be a blank book or an app, such as Day One, which is also handy for storing photos. Keeping your journal with you means that you’re more likely to use it.
  • Capture moments on the road. Take the time to stop at a cafe or linger by a waterfall, and record right then and there all of your thoughts and impressions. Dwelling on the sights and sounds around you not only helps you capture them, but also encourages you to sink more deeply into the moment and really savor your adventures.
  • Keep (or take photos of) your tickets and other memorabilia. This is a great way to capture little details. You can store these in a physical journal, or keep the photos in your travel app.
