using points outside of Disney

[IleneF]

I'm looking for information on using points for things like a week in Colorado or some such thing. Those of you that have done this ...how many points did you need for a 5 night or longer stay? Was it worth it? Would it have made more sense to rent your points and use the cash for the Colorado (or other destination) stay? Trying to use my 150points strategically...Thanks for the help.
