Why wouldn't you get the same number of points it would take anyone to stay at your home resort? I wouldn't even be able to trade for a different season.
If you are going to your own resort, you don't use points on those years. Just make your reservations as you used to. It's only if you are going to another Marriott resort and you don't want to chance Interval International or you want to know right away that you can get the reservation to the Marriott resort you want. Also, if you make the reservation with Marriotts program, you don't have to pay any additional fees as you paid your club fee so if you only want to use a one bedroom, you would be in good shape of not having to pay a lockoff fee and an exchange fee.
