This small lake is about a mile long. The only public launch is at the west end in Stevenson Park, off West Front Street. There is a channel from there to the lake, but good luck finding it - be prepared to run aground. Fortunately, the bottom is firm sand, and a short tow on foot will get you out to deeper water. It is also possible to go a short ways up the creek.

Shadow Lake is very picturesque. The lake is surrounded by high bluffs; most of the homes around the lake have stairs down to private docks. Shadow Lake Dam is an earthfill berm dam on Nut Swamp Brook in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Built in 1931, it has a length of 600 feet and is 16 feet high. Hubbard Road crosses over its crest.

The last dock on the lake is a particularly fine construction - square and solid after 25 years
