To make a reservation for a Welk Resort or accrue your Points for use in the future, simply log on to the OWNER’S LOUNGE, and select “Reservations” in the “Owners Services” section. You must travel between January 1 and December 31 or your Ownership Points will expire on December 31.

Requests made after August 31 and up to December 31 accrue only 50% of your Points. No Points are accrued after December 31 of your “use” year.

If an Owner cancels/changes more than two months prior to the occupancy date, all the Points are returned to the Owner’s account with no reservation restrictions. If an Owner cancels/changes less than two months, but more than seven days, from the occupancy date, 100% of the Points are returned to the Owner’s account, and the Points can only be reserved in a 60-day reservation period.
