Assunpink Lake WMA - Upper Freehold

Assunpink Lake - Upper Freehold
( 40.21804, -74.50981 )

  1. Assunpink Lake - Upper Freehold ( 40.21542, -74.51702 )
  2. Rising Sun Lake - Upper Freehold ( 40.20699, -74.46339 )
  3. Stone Tavern Lake - Upper Freehold ( 40.19587, -74.48596 )

About a mile long, in the Assunpink WMA. To the east you can find two other small lakes in the same watershed: Stone Tavern Lake (WMA), and Rising Sun Lake (WMA). Assunpink Creek drains into Lake Mercer, which is much larger than any of these.

Assunpink Lake is not a park, it is a "Wildlife Management Area", and falls under a completely different set of regulations, which you can find here:

  • https://dep.nj.gov/njfw/wildlife/wildlife-management-area-regulations

From the state website:

Any vehicle used to transport or launch a vessel or water conveyance on the following WMAs must have affixed to the lower corner of the driver’s side rear window a Boat Ramp Maintenance Permit or a photocopy of a current hunting, fishing or trapping license showing the Conservation ID Number (CID#). Identifying information other than the CID# may be blacked out to protect your identity. Boat Ramp Maintenance Permits may be purchased for a fee of $15.00 from any license agent or Fish and Wildlife’s license Web site (under “Wildlife Management Area Use Permits” after logging in and selecting to make a purchase).
