My grandparents, Harry & Rose Landberg, owned the Palace Hotel from about 1944 to 1952. It was on the 4 corners of roads leading to Parksville, Liberty, Bradley and Neversink. During the war my mother was the bellhop because we couldn't get young men for the job. My dad was the hotel accountant, my grandfather bought the food, was the head waiter, played the piano & told jokes in the casino. My grandmother did most of the cooking & baking. I was the kids' counselor (10 yrs. old) and sang on the casino stage to the piano accompaniament of my mother, Mollie. My dad, Max, also sang . My sister Jacki, who was a toddler, picked the blueberries for the pies. Who out there remembers our hotel? Who might have pictures? We do, but don't know the names of those in them. Our bands were made up of CCNY boys who went on to bigger & better ! hotels. One example was Marty Werbel. Two families that were returnees were the Tabacks and the Sakowitzes, with kids my age. The Melody Country Club was down the road. I'd love to hear from people with memories of the Palace Hotel. I now sing in the N.Y. and Boca Raton, Fla. areas. P.S. Where is my old friend Rena Regelson(owner of the Harmony Country Club)? Elaine Sternfeld Bernstein EBERNS24@aol.com -

I fondly recall many summers at the Harmony Country Club during the late 40's-mid 50's. I went with my parents , aunt and cousin. I recall the Regelson's. There was the father, mother and I think two grown children, one a son who took me hiking. Sorry, but I don't recall the Palace Hotel, but it must have been a very special place.
