Bluegreen Corporation is an American private vacation ownership brand that is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Hilton Grand Vacations. The company provides vacations at 50 owned or managed resorts on a time-share basis, with alternative resort and cruise options available through upselling and third-party exchanges.[3] Bluegreen makes its services available to other resort operators on a fee-for-service basis.[4]

Originally a land-sale company founded as Patten Realty Corporation in 1966, Bluegreen also developed land into residential and golf course communities until 2012.[4] The company currently has three primary divisions: Bluegreen Resorts oversees the time-share program,[5] Bluegreen Vacations manages the Bluegreen Vacation Club point system,[6] and Outdoor Traveler markets Bluegreen programs at Bass Pro stores.[7]

Beyond Bass Pro, Bluegreen also has ongoing partnerships with companies such as Choice Hotels International.[8] In 2012 Bluegreen's profits came to $458 million[9] and total assets equaled to $1.08 billion.[10] Bluegreen's philanthropic efforts include support of organizations such as the American Red Cross and JDRF.[11]
