Mirror Lake
18 miles away
Yes, There is a small beach on Mirror Lake. I got there every once in a while since I actually live near there. But I wouldn't recommend fishing there. There is so much pollution in the area where fish breed. The only fish you would likely see is dead fish. Also, it is fun to go out on a small boat like a conoe and look around the lake. There is a small island where if you are lucky, some of the mother geese would allow you to feed them and their young....Can dogs go swimming in mirror lake?...CAN WE SWIM IN MIRROR LAKE? Is is shallow?...

Holiday Lake

The lake was a popular day vacation spot for people from South Jersey and Philadlephia...from the 50's through 70's!!! There was a lake, swimming pool, concession stand, mini golf, picnic area etc. From what was said before it was sold, they were being forced to sell because of rising insurance rates from of frivolous lawsuits. It sat decaying for years - outside there's a really cool retro style gate right out of the 50's & the sign says Holiday Lake. Beyond it lies a dried out swimming pool full of dirt & grass growing out of it. Dilapidated buildings that were once changing rooms surround the lake. You used to be able to rent bathing suits. There's an old decaying minature golf course and abandoned playground. The entire scene is creepy. Property was bought by a church....

Aquetong Lake
19 miles away
I live less than a mile from this place. Me, my brother, and his friend decided to try to fish here. We found an old canoe with a tag on it that said 1855. We drained the water and paddled out with toy shovels. 90% of this lake is about 1 foot deep. Once you get to the dam-looking part it drops to about 7-9. We fished for about a half hour. Didn't catch anything, or even see a fish (the waters clear as day)....Great for fishing, late at night when the bugs are flying on the surface, the trout jump out and get them. Too bad they don't go for your hook. I've caught sunnys trout and large mouth there. Great place that nobody else fishes at; my own little secret spot ha ha....
