Tower differences and pool closures: pick the best building for your stay
Pick a tower based on what you want: family groups with kids should favor towers near the waterslide/lazy river areas (Tower 6 and the Tower 5 lazy-river side when open), while adults seeking quieter pools and a bar scene should aim for towers with calmer pools and poolside bars. Note: Tower 5's pool and lazy river are under renovation with closures listed by Wyndham (external dates shown), so check current status before booking.

How the six towers differ (what to expect)
Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek is made up of six timeshare towers laid out around a central lake. Different towers put you closer to specific pool complexes and some of the kid-focused water features.
Guest reports and property descriptions distinguish family-oriented pool areas (with slides and a pirate-ship theme) from quieter pools with bars and no slides. The towers are commonly referred to as Towers 1–6; location relative to lake and pool features matters more than interior differences between suites.
- Towers near Tower 6: closer to the 'pirate ship' pool and kid-focused amenities.
- Towers near Tower 5/lazy-river: near a lazy river and larger family pool complex (currently affected by renovation—see the Pools & closures section).
- Some towers are closer to poolside bars and calmer pools aimed at adults.
| Feature | Towers likely nearby |
|---|---|
| Pirate-ship pool / waterslide | Tower 6 |
| Lazy river / family pool | Tower 5 area |
| Quieter pools / pool bars | Other towers (1–4) |
Pools, lazy rivers, and current closures
The property lists multiple outdoor pools, two lazy rivers, waterslides and children's water play areas across the resort. Public information counts between four and six pools depending on renovations and how areas are grouped.
Wyndham has announced a renovation that affects Tower 5: the Tower 5 pool and lazy river are closed for exterior renovation (Wyndham lists closure dates from September 12, 2026 through December 1, 2026 for the pool) and interior tower work continuing through November 20, 2026. These schedules come from Wyndham's public listing and may change.
- Resort pools reported to be open generally from 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM (guest reports).
- There are dedicated children's pools and family play areas separate from calmer adult-oriented pools.
- Confirm which towers' pools are open at check-in — renovations and phased work can close individual pools or lazy rivers.
| Pool feature | Notes |
|---|---|
| Lazy rivers | Two on the property; one tied to the Tower 5 family area (recently listed as closed for renovation) |
| Waterslide / pirate pool | Associated with Tower 6 and family-friendly activity zones |
| Quieter pools | Several calmer pools with poolside bar service — better for adult guests |
Which tower to pick if you’re traveling with kids
Families who want to be steps from slides, lazy rivers, and children’s play areas should choose a tower near Tower 6 or the family-pool side of the complex. Those locations put you closer to the pirate-ship pool, waterslide and the larger lazy-river sections when they are open.
Because Tower 5 has scheduled renovation work affecting its pool and lazy river, families arriving during the listed closure dates should confirm whether alternate family pools and play areas are operating or request a room closer to Tower 6.
- Look for towers closest to Tower 6 for immediate access to slides and kid play areas.
- If Tower 5 lazy-river pool is closed during your dates, ask the front desk about substitute pools or temporary access arrangements.
- Pool hours and specific pool access can change during renovation — verify at check-in.
| Priority | Best choice |
|---|---|
| Closest to waterslide and pirate-ship pool | Towers near Tower 6 |
| Easy lazy-river access (when open) | Tower 5 area (check for closures) |
| Backup family pool options during renovations | Ask front desk at arrival |
Which tower to pick for a quieter, more adult stay
If you prefer a quieter pool or want to be near poolside bars without the constant family activity, aim for towers described by guests and listings as close to calmer pools and bar areas. These are usually the towers set away from Tower 6's slides.
Quieter pools also tend to have no slides and may have easy access to a poolside bar. If peace is a priority, request a tower or room farther from the main family complexes when you book or at check-in.
- Request a tower near the calmer pools (typically not Tower 6 or Tower 5 family pool area).
- Check if the tower faces the central lake — lake-view walking paths can be quieter than pool-facing patios.
- Confirm pool hours and any planned activities that might bring larger groups to a pool area.
| Guest goal | Recommended tower placement |
|---|---|
| Quiet pool time | Towers away from Tower 6/family pool |
| Poolside drinks with no slide noise | Near calmer pool with bar access |
| Easy walking paths / lake view | Towers facing the central lake |
Suites and how to match them to your group
Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek offers condo-style suites in three configurations. Use the exact room names when booking to avoid confusion: Suite, 1 Bedroom, Balcony; Suite, 2 Bedrooms; and Suite, 3 Bedrooms.
Choose based on bed count and group size: each room type lists the bed layout in property information — for example, Suite, 1 Bedroom, Balcony includes 1 King Bed and 1 Queen Sofa Bed.
- Suite, 1 Bedroom, Balcony (beds: 1 King Bed and 1 Queen Sofa Bed) — suitable for couples or small families who want a balcony.
- Suite, 2 Bedrooms (beds: 1 King Bed, 2 Double Beds and 1 Double Sofa Bed) — fits most families wanting separate bedrooms.
- Suite, 3 Bedrooms (beds: 2 King Beds, 2 Double Beds and 1 Queen Sofa Bed) — best for larger groups or multigenerational travel.
| Suite type | Typical use |
|---|---|
| Suite, 1 Bedroom, Balcony | Couples or small family; balcony included |
| Suite, 2 Bedrooms | Families needing separate sleeping areas |
| Suite, 3 Bedrooms | Large families or groups needing max beds |
Pool hours, rules, and what to check at arrival
Guest reports list pool hours commonly from 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM, but hours and access can change during renovation phases or for maintenance. Confirm exact pool hours and which pools are open when you check in.
Ask the front desk about pool rules, cabana rentals or any extra charges for poolside services. If a specific pool or lazy river is important to your stay, get written confirmation of its availability for your dates.
- Typical reported pool hours: 8:00 AM – 11:00 PM (verify locally).
- Tower-specific pool closures may apply (Tower 5 listed for renovation-related closures).
- Confirm whether poolside bars, waterslides and lazy rivers are operating before arrival if they are important to your trip.
| Question to ask at check-in | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Which pools/lazy rivers are open? | Renovation may close specific features (Tower 5 noted) |
| Pool hours and late-night access | Hours can vary and affect swim plans |
| Cabanas or rental fees | Some pool amenities carry extra charges |
