Live The Lake NJ

In the nineteenth century the lake was a popular and convenient destination for city dwellers looking for relief from the heat and humidity.  Fresh water, clean air, cool nights and beautiful scenery were major draws.  Trains ran to the lake where steam boat ferries waited to whisk visitors to one of many hotels and campsites around the lake.  This tourism supported a variety of attractions such as summer theater, amusement parks, dance halls, restaurants and bars, a movie theater, photo services as well as a variety of private clubs and more. It was easy to fall in love with the lake and all it had to offer.

Today, Lake Hopatcong is thriving and visitors enjoy many activities here. The companies at Live the Lake NJ offer a variety of ways to experience New Jersey's largest lake - water and land adventure tours, dinner cruises, mini golf, ice cream, as well as delicious meals from restaurants with amazing views.  We are confident that you will be glad that you visited New Jersey's largest lake - Lake Hopatcong.  That is why we want you to LivetheLakeNJ.
