Club Wyndham at Smugglers' Notch Resort

The resort and its setting

Club Wyndham at Smugglers' Notch Resort is a Club Wyndham property in Jeffersonville, Vermont, set in the Green Mountains near the Smugglers' Notch pass. As part of the Wyndham points-based system, owners typically hold a week or a points allocation here and can use it at this resort or move it elsewhere within the Club Wyndham portfolio. The resort is affiliated with RCI, which opens up exchange possibilities beyond the Wyndham network itself.

The area and things to do

Jeffersonville's biggest draw is its location: minutes from Smugglers' Notch State Park and a short drive from Stowe, one of Vermont's best-known mountain towns. In winter that means skiing and snow sports close by; the rest of the year it's hiking, mountain biking, and the kind of scenery that draws visitors to northern Vermont for fall foliage. Route 100, the state's scenic byway, runs through the region and makes day trips straightforward. Cold Hollow Cider Mill, Waterbury Village, and the Ben & Jerry's factory are all within a reasonable drive, giving owners and renters plenty to fill a week beyond the resort itself.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at Club Wyndham at Smugglers' Notch Resort and want to sell, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a straightforward owner-to-owner marketplace: you list the week yourself, set your own asking price, and interested buyers contact you directly through the platform. There's a one-time listing fee to post, and no commission is taken when the sale goes through — unlike traditional resale brokers, who take a cut of the final price.

A few things are worth knowing before you list. According to Club Wyndham, changing ownership on a contract involves a $399 processing charge to transfer the title into the buyer's name. Owners should factor this into negotiations, as it's common for buyers and sellers to agree between themselves who covers it. Some Club Wyndham Access contracts — generally those from around 2017 onward — reportedly carry a right of first refusal, though owners who've gone through a sale describe it as rarely exercised in practice. It's worth checking your specific contract rather than assuming either way.

Buyers should also understand what a resale purchase does and doesn't include: resale points at Club Wyndham do not carry VIP status, Club Pass, Wyndham Rewards conversion, or PlusPartners benefits. These perks are tied to the original developer purchase and don't transfer with a resale contract, so buyers get the underlying ownership and usage rights, not the loyalty extras. Wyndham hasn't published a standard timeframe for how long a transfer takes, so it's sensible to ask the seller or Wyndham directly before finalising a sale date.

For owners considering renting instead of selling, the same listing approach applies — post the week's dates and resort details, set your own rental price, and manage enquiries directly with renters through the platform.

Practical notes for buyers and renters

Anyone searching for a week here should treat fall (September–October) as the tightest booking window, given how popular Vermont's foliage season is regionally — availability through RCI exchanges or direct bookings tends to tighten up well in advance. Winter brings its own demand from the ski crowd, while spring and summer are generally quieter and easier for last-minute plans. A car is practically essential for reaching Stowe, Waterbury, and the cider mill, since the resort's appeal rests on the surrounding area as much as the property itself.
