Living It Up On Lake Hopatcong

As New Jersey’s largest freshwater lake (at 2,500 acres in size), Lake Hopatcong is a year-round recreational hotspot. The lake’s 45 miles of shoreline offers you countless ways to add wow to your day, weekend, or season. So, dive right in and discover all the things to do on and along the water.

Go All In with Watersports

Ringed by multiple marinas, Lake Hopatcong invites you to take to the water any way you please. Connect with Bridge Marina to rent a luxury pontoon boat complete with a bimini top for shade, Bluetooth stereo system for tunes, plush seating, changing rooms and more amenities for your complete comfort.
Rather let someone else take the helm? Sit back, relax and enjoy the pleasures of being a passenger with Lake Hopatcong Cruises. From the beginning of May to the end of October, it’s all aboard Miss Lotta for a nearly endless variety of themed cruises including Cheeseburger in Paradise, Superhero Family Lunch, Historical Excursion, Wine Down Dinner, Studio 54 Night, Farm to Boat Dinner and so much more.
Hit Lakeview Marina to rent a hydro bike or try your hand (really, your feet!) at wakeboarding, wakesurfing or water skiing. You can even try the barely-heard-of-before activities of ZUP and Air Chair for the ultimate bragging rights.
And if you’re fortunate enough to own your own kayak, paddleboard, canoe, motorboat, jet ski or sailing vessel, you can use the public boat launch in Hopatcong State Park to navigate your way around the lake.
