Nothing that I remember as being a big deal. Maybe we were asked to start the dishwasher, but nothing like stripping the beds, etc. The information they give you will outline anything they ask, but it is minimal.
Here's the contact list for Wyndham resorts. They have Bonnet as 407-238-3500

That is the hotel. Not the same thing but on the same property. When you stay at the hotel you have access to all of the pools around the property too.
I’m so sorry this has happened to you. Did you have your email confirmation in your name? How did you find out it was cancelled?
My reservation was through Vacation Strategy. They sent me an email regarding the cancellation. I have stayed at WBC many times over the years using both Vacation Strategy and Vacation Upgrade and have never had one issue so I was surprised this happened. I would suggest that you call WBC directly a couple of days before your visit and confirm that they have your reservation. I always do that, makes me feel better to know it's set. Here is what VS sent to me. There is no detail, I had to call them. And they weren't helpful in making other suggestions as to where to stay, I had to ask what else they had.I’m so sorry this has happened to you. Did you have your email confirmation in your name?

I’m booked as a guest in a 2 br presidential in about a week and now I’m worried
When you rent through VS, you don't get a confirmation email from WBC. When you check in, they have your reservation under your name. That is why I always call. When you rent through VU, you do get a confirmation email from Wyndham. So the answer to your question is no, I didn't have an email confirmation from WBC.
I also meant to add that I don't know if having an email confirmation from Wyndham would have made a difference. It most likely depends on why it was canceled. From what I understand, when you rent from a 3rd party, you are a guest. And if something happened with the owners account, the guest will be affected.
Most recent located on Google. They don’t change much.
I wonder if the big points owners will start feeling this, and then start dumping their points, further lowering the cost of secondary-market ownership points. I don't think I would ever own a timeshare, but at a certain price, who knows?
I was 3 weeks out when it got cancelled. I don't know if there is an official cutoff. This has taught me that no reservation is "safe." I do realize that things happen when you travel but it's just very disappointing because my family loves WBC. I am glad I was notified 3 weeks ahead so I had time to make other plans.
Several folks on TUG have gotten out of the business of renting, and I assume there are others. However, the prices on Wyndham resale are already quite low. I haven't followed the market lately, but a quick check of ebay completed listings suggests that $5-$10/K (or less). For comparison, that's about the range of annual maintenance fees as well---so the purchase price is about the cost of one year's use.
The owner can put a guest name on the day the reservation is made, up to the day of check in. The only requirement is that an owner with overlapping reservations has to have a different lead guest name on each one. Many owners wait until about two weeks prior to add a guest name, because changing a name cost a new guest certificate, and 15 days is the point at which they cannot get their points back if they cancel. But, if they use (or pay for) a guest certificate and later cancel, they don't get the guest certificate back no matter how far in advance it is done.
for this coming January? I think you're out of luck unless they have something through wyndham directly. The 4 bed units go right at 13 months most of the time.
