Prospertown Lake - Jackson
( 40.13370, -74.44958 )

  1. Prospertown Lake - Jackson ( 40.13497, -74.45779 )

This is a nice clean lake that straddles the border between Monmouth and Ocean Counties. The neat thing about it is, if you scroll the map to the upper-right corner, that is not some industrial park, that is Great Adventure! This is the lake that is at the back of the park. At the east end of the lake, you are looking up at all the rides, while to the south is the Safari Park. You can see more water from there, but I wouldn't jump any of the dykes, as that would put you on Great Adventure's property, or maybe in the lion pen. It's not a big lake, but there is plenty of shoreline to inspect. There is a small dam at the western end. No real facilities, just parking.


Weston's Mill Pond

  1. Davidson's Mill Pond - East Brunswick ( 40.41117, -74.49789 )
  2. Farrington Lake - East Brunswick (C) ( 40.42465, -74.47680 )
  3. Farrington Lake - East Brunswick (N) ( 40.43900, -74.46646 )
  4. Farrington Lake - East Brunswick (S) ( 40.42201, -74.48242 )
  5. Lawrence Brook - Milltown (E) ( 40.45144, -74.43663 )
  6. Lawrence Brook - Milltown (W) ( 40.44831, -74.44367 )
  7. Weston's Mill Pond - East Brunswick ( 40.46677, -74.42603 )

Westons Mill Pond is the northernmost of several lakes created by damming the Lawrence Brook, which flows from south to north, and into the Raritan River. This access point is the road that led up to the old bridge, which is gone. There is always enough parking and it is an easy launch, just a few yards to the water.
