The Pointe Hotel & Suites

The Resort & Setting

The Pointe Hotel & Suites is an independent timeshare property affiliated with RCI, located in Minocqua, a town that acts as the unofficial capital of Wisconsin's Northwoods. Rather than belonging to a national hotel brand, it operates as a standalone resort with its own management and owners' association, while still giving timeshare owners access to RCI's exchange network for trading their week at other affiliated resorts worldwide.

The Area & Things to Do

Minocqua is built around its lakes, and that's the main draw here. Minocqua Lake itself is less than a mile from the resort and is the hub of local life in summer — swimming, fishing, boating and general lake time. A short drive out, the Northwoods Wildlife Center (roughly 3 miles away) is worth a stop for anyone interested in native Wisconsin wildlife and rehabilitation work. Further afield, the Lac du Flambeau Reservation (about 14 miles) offers a window into Ojibwe history and culture, and Wausau, around 65 miles south, is the nearest larger city if you need more shopping, dining or a change of pace. Winters bring a different crowd altogether, with snowmobiling and cross-country skiing drawing visitors once the lakes and trails freeze over.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at The Pointe Hotel & Suites and want to sell or rent it out, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a straightforward owner-to-owner marketplace: you list your week, set your own asking price, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers simply pay a small one-time listing fee to get their week in front of buyers.

Because The Pointe Hotel & Suites is an independent resort, any resale will typically go through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than through a brand-wide transfer department. Before finalizing a price with a buyer, both sides should confirm two things directly with the resort: the transfer fee that applies when ownership changes hands, and the current annual maintenance fee for the week in question. These figures vary by resort and unit type, so it's worth getting them in writing before closing a deal. Ask the resort how long the transfer process typically takes, since this can affect when a buyer can first book their stay.

A resale buyer generally takes on the ownership interest itself — the right to use or exchange that week going forward — but not any back dues, special assessments, or loyalty-style perks tied to the original owner's account. If RCI exchange access matters to you as a buyer, confirm with the resort that the affiliation transfers with the unit and ask what's needed to activate your own RCI membership once the sale closes.

Practical Notes for Renters and Buyers

Renters booking a week at The Pointe Hotel & Suites, whether directly from an owner or through an RCI exchange, should plan around the season that suits their trip: summer and early autumn for lake activities and warm-weather exploring, winter for snow sports. Given the seasonal swing in weather here, it's worth checking with the owner or resort what's included in the unit and packing accordingly, since the Northwoods can go from humid summer afternoons to well below freezing in winter.
