Quite a trip—600 miles, leaving Saturday afternoon, returning Monday morning, with a brief turnaround visit on Sunday at the Catskill Mountain House, having lunch (dinner, as it was called then). Twenty-one hours spent sailing Narragansett Bay, then the length of the Long Island Sound, and then up the Hudson to Catskill. An hour by train, including the Otis Elevating Railroad. Lunch. Turn around and go back. All for $14.99. In today’s dollars, that’s over $500. Was this a trip for people who just had to see the Catskill Mountain House, but couldn’t afford the time or money to stay there, or for people who just love being on a boat? There’s more about the Catskill Mountain House in “Rooms with a View” in the March issue of the Catskill Region Guide, on paper or online at issuu.com https://issuu.com/catskillmtnregionguide/docs/march2024guideweb
