We love Ocean City, and we live in Orange County California. Love the old school boardwalk, warm water, fishing, saltier air. Catskills are great too. Just remember, nobody puts Baby in a corner.

Catskills, Resorts, "Dirty Dancing", a popular 1987 film. It was a famous line uttered in the film by Johnny (Patrick Swayze). The location for some of the shoot was the Brown's Hotel in the Catskills. It has since burned down, after being turned into condominiums. The main shooting location was Mountain Lake Resort near Roanoke VA. the movie's setting was supposed to be the Borscht Belt of hotels that thrived in the Catskills until the late 70s. By the time the film was made, about a summer in 1963, most of the Borscht Belt hotels had already closed down.
More than you wanted to know, but the movie is the only impression most of us have about the Catskills. At least those of us who have never been there.
