This Film-Famous Resort In New York’s Catskill Mountains Is Up For Sale
Television shows usually give us a few minutes to escape into a fantasy world, but sometimes they give us a few tips into real-world hotspots as well. Luckily, that’s exactly the case with a certain upstate New York resort as well. Scott’s Family Resort at Oquaga Lake was made famous by award-winning comedy, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” after it was chosen as a setting for the show in 2019. But it’s also the ideal getaway for anyone looking to spend a few days relaxing in the midst of a picturesque setting. But earlier this year, the owners announced that they would be selling the nostalgic upstate getaway.
