Pet Policy Reminder
There is a “No Pet” policy at Timbers at Island Park Village Resort.
Animals of any kind are not permitted to be housed in the units. Please make arrangements for your pets to remain home or at an animal shelter.
Unfortunately, because of this policy if any animals are found in a unit the occupants will be asked to remove the pet and/or leave the resort.

How do I make a reservation?
To make a reservation, simply contact the Owner Services Department at Trading Places International at (888) 290-2740 ext. 1 or email ownerservices@tradingplaces.com. Reservations can be booked up to a year in advance to the day and space books up fast, so plan early! Please refer to the Island Park Rules and Regulations for more information on how and when to make reservations. We look forward to assisting you with your vacations plans!
Exactly how far in advance can I reserve a use week?
You may reserve a use week up to 12 months in advance. However, for deposit requests ONLY, a reservation for your contracted week can be made up to 24 months in advance with the prepayment of maintenance fees.
Will I be required to pay the maintenance fee on my interval to reserve a week or do an exchange?
No, when requesting a reservation for the following year the maintenance fee for that year does not have to be paid in full, however they do have to be paid in full before the reservation can be banked/deposited for exchange.
I never received a confirmation, where do I get one?
You may request a confirmation by calling the Owner Services Department at 888-290-2740 ext. 1 or e-mail ownerservices@tradingplaces.com.
How can I exchange my week to travel to another property?
If you are not planning to travel on your week to Timbers at Island Park Village Resort and would like to bank it with an exchange company, make sure you plan early, as all reservations are subject to availability!
In order to bank/deposit a week most exchange companies (Trading Places International (TPI), Resort Condominiums International (RCI), Interval International (II), etc.) require a specific lead time for unrestricted exchange terms. The earlier you deposit the better your chances will be to receive flexibility with your exchange options.
Steps to banking/depositing your week for exchange:
- Call Trading Places International’s Owner Services department to request a reservation for deposit.
- Pay your corresponding maintenance fees for the week you want to bank/deposit.
- Contact the exchange company of your choice and give them your Timbers at Island Park Village Resort reservation (*Please note: An owner services representative is able to facilitate your deposit should you elect to use Trading Places Exchange or RCI exchange).
- Make sure you receive a confirmation directly from the exchange company in writing confirming your week has been successfully banked/deposited.
Why did II or RCI deny my deposit?
In order to deposit your week with an outside exchange company you must have a week already booked at Timbers at Island Park Village Resort. Your maintenance fees for the year also must be paid in full. Please check with the Owner Services Department by calling 888-290-2740 ext. 1 for more information.
Do we have to know which property we want to exchange into at the time we deposit?
No. Just like making your reservation, the earlier you request a specific location, the more likely you are to get it.
How do I know if I should deposit and/or exchange my week with TPI, II, or RCI?
As a guideline, TPI specializes in exchanges with Hawaii, the Western U.S., and Mexico. RCI & II do exchanges worldwide.
For detailed reservation procedures please refer to your Reservation Policies and Procedures located under governing documents on the owners corner of the website: www.timbersatislandpark.com/owners
How does the rental program work?
Our owner rental program was designed to help owners "offset" their maintenance fees if they do not wish to travel back to their home resort. Trading Places International retains a commission for their services.
- A rental agreement is signed by the owner and submitted back to Trading Places in order for their unit to get listed. We recommend a minimum 6 months prior to arrival; however, we will accept weeks up to 30 days prior to arrival. The sooner Trading Places receives the week to rent, the better rental opportunity and rate for the owner.
- High demand weeks accepted by Trading Places into the rental program will be guaranteed a banked week if the unit does not rent. Week must be received by Trading Places no later than 120 days prior to arrival in order to be guaranteed.
- Detailed terms and conditions can be found on the Rental/Exchange Authorization Agreement.
- You can contact the rental department at (800) 290-2740 ext. 4 or by email at rentals@tradingplaces.com
When can I expect my annual maintenance fee statement?
Regular association dues are billed annually and are due payable October 1st of each year (subject to change based on the approved ABC Policy), late by October 31st. A statement is mailed to you as a courtesy to assist you in making your yearly maintenance fee payment. Non-receipt of a statement does not relieve you of your financial obligation. Check/Cash payments are encouraged to help keep association expenses down, however if you cannot pay by cash or check you can now pay your maintenance fees online with a credit card. Just

How can my friends and family travel with me to Timbers at Island Park Village Resort?
