Jesse:
I live on this lake, I'm 14 and every summer I have the most wonderful time on floating docks with my friends and waking up and kayaking with my little sister.



Alex Trahim:
I remember swiming here when I was young. A big different from the creek under the parkway bridge.



Warren Taylor:
I remember back in the 50's I would go past the lake and see kid's swing from a tree on a rope, and then let go and dive in the water. I was so jealous, but I had Cliffwood.

MORE STUFF NEARBY:

Cliffwood Beach
We have a natural beach, good for surf fishing, boating, walking your dog. Swimming is best done on the ocean, not the bay, sorry to say. And there is no camping. Nearest spot is at Cheesequake State Park off Exit 120 of the Garden State Parkway. CB is not a ''pretty wet place''; it gets average summer rainfall for a temperate zone locale. Bird watching is good here. Nice view of Keyport harbor. The view of Whale Creek is not a remarkable vista for a postcard....

Farrington Lake
14 miles away
Camp Farrington was the best.  I was there in the 60's but don't remember exact years.  I went one or two summers as a camper and then one summer when I was a little older as a waiter.  My father Herbert Lederer was brother to Terry Greenwald.  Terry and Howard Greenwald were two of the owners of the camp.  One of my favorite memories was sneaking out of the bunk house after hours and pretending to be councillors as we made our way over to the girls bunk house.  I so remeber the ''lily pond'' and monkey bridge and how much fun they were....Yes - Truly the best. I was there for 5 or 6 summers from approx 1964 to 1969. I remember watching Neil Armstrong walk on the moon among many highlights......
