Christmas Valley Vacations from $562

We didn’t realize this was a VI property until we checked in despite being VI members. It was a nice option to be able to pay directly via Expedia versus using points. Perhaps because of this we were given a room upgrade. We had a two bedroom suite. The rooms were very clean. We had a great location by the pool and hot tub on the first floor and had two nice decks. The unit had a full kitchen, washer and dryer and air conditioning. The walk in showers had great water pressure and got nice and hot. It was more like an apartment vs a hotel room. The units look like they have recently been upgraded. The pool was cold but it is only June…the hot tub was great. There were games you could borrow in the club house and pool floats and toys. We didn’t use them but you get use of two bikes and there is a tennis court that also has pickleball courts. I don’t how The Pines compares in price to the Sunriver Resort but we thought it was worth the price and will definitely stay again.

Upstairs was too hot so had to sleep in the single beds

Room was dirty, eyelashes next to sink, coffee table looks like it had never been wiped clean, so much food, dirt and debris on edges. employee knocked and tried to come into room while I was in it but never checked log to see who was in room before trying to just come inside. doors to lobby did not open when I was walking inside stuck between the two automatic doors.
