Our experience with Bluegreen was highly unsatisfactory. We spent two hours listening to their presentation before realizing that a timeshare was not suitable for us, especially considering the financial strain of over $20,000 that they wanted immediately. When we expressed our inability to commit, our salesperson was clearly frustrated. They sent multiple representatives to our table, making us feel pressured and overwhelmed. Despite our initial decision, the amount of people pushing us led us to reluctantly sign up for a timeshare we never wanted. It was a long, grueling six hours of being persuaded against our better judgment. The tactics used felt aggressive and left us feeling bullied into a major financial commitment that we quickly regretted. We urge others to approach such meetings with caution. If you are not seriously considering a purchase, it might be best to avoid these timeshare presentations altogether. The environment can lead to regrettable decisions, and cancellation is not a straightforward process like they say it is. Be mindful and protect your interests.

Our recent experience with purchasing a timeshare after attending a presentation at Bluegreen in Myrtle Beach has been quite challenging. We were excited by the promise of a discounted vacation package and a Cabelas gift card, only to find ourselves stuck in a commitment that has proven difficult to get out of. During the presentation, it seemed like a routine sales pitch, but after hours of discussing and viewing model cabins, we found ourselves signing papers for a mortgage we hadn't fully intended to commit to, considering our plans to save for a house. The experience has left us with a significant financial burden, as the monthly payments, coupled with maintenance fees, have strained our budget and necessitated overtime work. Attempts to cancel the timeshare or discuss the loan have been met with roadblocks. Representatives and a supervisor have informed us of an inability to make changes, and the mortgage support line has been unresponsive, leaving our calls unanswered. We remain hopeful for resolution, but wish to caution others to carefully consider such commitments and ensure all aspects are fully understood before proceeding. This experience has certainly been a lesson learned in navigating vacation offers linked to timeshare presentations.

Stay away from them. I use to have a time share with Bluegreen and i spend so much money for a loan and monthly payments and when i try to book a resort with them they told me i have no enoth points to book a resort so they offer me to go 5 miles away from the beach at Holiday Inn, this is a joke or what because i didnt use it for a year and half to and still no enoth point. So i call this robbers and i cancel my loan because they are piss of liars and after 2 year i found out it was a credit for almost $8000 on my credit history. So they sayd i own them this money. How i can own this money to them when i didnt use them service and i paid therm so much money in 2 years. JUST RUN FROM TIME SHARE AND FROM THIS BLUEGREEN VACATION

If I could give zero stars, I absolutely would! I’m not going to go on and on about our experience from the time we spent $199 at bass pro shop to the time we checked out at our stay at thousand hills…LOL It was an absolute joke! THANK YOU THOUSAND HILLS for helping us so much and paying for a second room for us. After everything we had to go through along with our four children, I called to confirm our $100 Mastercard. The website didn’t work. The automated call said it was an invalid card Lol. So I called customer service and the lady said she had to have my partner be the one to speak and confirm the card. I told her my info should be in the computer as well. She said it has to be him. I told her that he is DEAF and cannot speak on the phone. She said sorry then I cannot help you. !!!!!!!! What an absolute shitshow! I’d very much rather save our own money that we budget to go on a normal family vacation rather than spend another second with bluegreen!

Back in November 2024, we met friendly Bluegreen Vacations staff at a BassPro Shops at Arundel Mills. We were offered 4-days/3-night stay at one of their resorts. I chose the White Mountains area since I haven't been to NH. I do not recall them mentioning anything about timeshare. I was made to believe that they are promoting the resorts affiliated with Bass Pro Shops. I bought a $199 package. I received emails from Bluegreen Vacations and was assigned a member number. Months later, yesterday, I tried booking a vacation on their website, but the member number I was assigned did not work. Then, I called 800-845-1995 as I realized I am a promotional guest customer. I tried to schedule a vacation at one of the two resorts in Missouri listed on their website, Wilderness Club at Big Cedar. This is when I got a sinking feeling that I got duped. Carlos, the customer representative I spoke with explained that I can't book the resort I wanted. He gave me other choices, including Hampton Inn and Thousand Hills. I opted for Thousand Hills. I gave him the dates I prefer. To complete the booking, he explained I have to answer some questions and on the second day, I have to go to a promotional presentation at the Wilderness Club at Big Cedar. Questions: 1 Are you married? 2 Are you 25 years or older? 3 Do you have a combined income of $50T before taxes? 4 Do you have a major credit card? I answered yes to all 4 questions. Next question, who is going on this trip? I said, myself, my daughter, my son, and his girlfriend. Carlos insisted my husband has to come but I said he can't. We had a back and fort argument about the requirement for my husband to go on this trip. Finally, Carlos transferred me to another person he said would help. After a long wait time, Martin picked up from when Carlos left off. Same argument and at one point Carlos asked why can't my husband go. I said for health reasons. I asked why does Bluegreen Vacations discriminate against my husband's situation and prevents me from going on my own with my children. I didn't get any satisfying explanation. Carlos even tried to trick me into cancelling a reservation. I said there is nothing to cancel, I did not complete the booking because I didn't meet the husband requirement. In the end, I realized I lost the money I paid. I will never again go near their booth at any Bass Pro Shops. Bass Pro Shops should not have Bluegreen Vacations or any timeshare traps at their stores. It's an awful feeling for me to feel SCAMMED at a reputable business. Update 4/10/2025: I got a refund of $159 after I posted this review with Bass Pro Shops on my Google reviews. I was directed to respond to them so I did that. I was not refunded for the $40 gift card. It's time consuming to go through it but at least I got $159 back.

if i could give 0 stars, I would. My wife and I were basically conned and trapped into purchasing a plan that literally doesn't even give us enough points to do anything or go anywhere, which is not something they tell you when you purchase. The "hour long" presentation turned into almost 8 hours of negotiating after we told them no multiple times but they just kept insisting and promising more and more things that ultimately became lies. 8 freaking hours. That was my entire day. They show you all the beautiful resorts not telling you that if you ever want to stay there for more than just 2 nights its going to be thousands and thousands of points. They also don't tell you that points expire and you need to pay to roll them over, but then you can only use them in "off seasons". Every single time we have tried to book anything, there has been an issue and this has been the most expensive mistake of my life. Not to mention that these people don't care that they are conning you and anytime you travel to one of their resorts they force you into an "hour long presentation" that turns into many hours of them trying to get you to buy more points and you politely saying no and they won't let you leave no matter how many times you say no. It's disgusting what these people do.

We hope this will serve as a warning for all of you out there. Big Cedar Vacations and Bluegreen Resorts are nothing less than Shysters. We were misled into believing the timeshare would increase in value. We were told the process of reselling the timeshare was falsely presented as simple and profitable. Their promises of substantial rental income were significantly overstated. We were led to believe booking times would be flexible and easily accessible. (It is anything but that!) We were oversold and the benefits of the RCI exchange program were exaggerated, with no clear mention of its limitations and extra fees. The ongoing maintenance costs were minimized, and the potential for future increases was downplayed. The offer of airline tickets and a gift card was used to distract from the true financial commitment required. We were assured that refinancing at a lower rate would be easy, which turned out to be false. We were given the impression of a carefree lifetime of vacations, without being informed of the financial and logistical burdens involved. To make matters worse, we were never told that our heirs would be saddled with this burdensome contract in the event of our passing. Simply put, we continue to be robbed.

Scammers, you owe me $100
