A 1964 color photograph taken outside the Homowack Lodge in Spring Glen, New York, showing long-distance motor coaches parked beside the resort complex during the height of the Borscht Belt era in the Catskills.
Two mid-century intercity buses dominate the scene, including a coach lettered for The Berea Bus Line Co. and another displaying signage for the Bortner Bus. Groups of male passengers stand nearby, some accessing the underfloor luggage compartments, suggesting an arrival or departure typical of organized resort travel.
The Homowack Lodge was one of the major Jewish resort hotels of the Catskills, part of the wider Borscht Belt network that flourished from the 1940s through the 1960s. Bus companies like those shown here played a key role in transporting guests from New York City to resorts across Sullivan and Ulster counties.
