After World War Two, the fame of Fred Waring maintained the Buckwood Inn as a
favorite stomping ground of countless celebrities and visiting golf stars. It
was here that Arnold Palmer met his wife-to-be, Winnie. The close proximity
to New York City made it the regular retreat for numerous show business giants.
Golf addict, Jackie Gleason was a semi-permanent guest and held sway for
years as jester-in-residence. Other regulars included Ed Sullivan, Art Carney, Don
Ameche and Perry Como.
