Why it's this cheap
An owner holding an early-December midweek reservation they can't use is renting it at TUG's last-minute price cap ($115 a day) rather than let it go; the stretch before the holiday rush is one of the Dells' quietest.
Why it's a steal
GOOD COMPARISONBooking.com and Priceline 'Three-Bedroom Suite' (sleeps 10) at Club Wyndham Glacier Canyon: $827 total for Dec 8–11 (2 adults), as shown on Google Hotels. Same search: Hotels.com 'Deluxe Condo, 3 Bedrooms, Kitchen' $835; Expedia $876. The resort's own rental site (Extra Holidays) showed only 1- and 2-bedroom suites, $560 and $646. The comparison rates are hotel-style bookings with platform protection (Expedia's is refundable), priced for 2 adults; Google's totals may leave out resort charges such as waterpark wristbands or parking, which the owner's price includes. This deal is a private owner rental arranged by forum message. Even the cheapest room of any type at the resort for these dates was $384 (a 1-bedroom through third-party sellers). Google's typical range for the cheapest room here is $100–$163 a night.
