American Dream Vacations is privileged to be able to offer a limited number of specials on cabin weeks owned by a group of investors in our company.  These investors frequently use the cabins they have purchased but sometimes they give them to us to sell for them.  These cabins may be sold at a discount from the normal price or placed in a promotional package which includes hotels etc.   These investor owned cabin weeks are sold exclusively by American Dream Vacations and not available through any other sales outlet.   These cabin weeks are few in number.
