Series on Lakes and Ponds throughout Salem County, NJ
Announcing the return to the series “The Lakes of Salem County” by The News of Salem County. We will feature a lake or pond in Salem County, NJ with a writeup, historical information, whether it is private or public, photo galleries, fishing information, wildlife habitats, and more!
Salem County, NJ has a rich history and an abundant amount of fresh water lakes and ponds both man-made and natural (some a mix of both like Cobb’s Mill which had the lowest temperature water in South Jersey). From Layton’s Lake in Carneys Point to Maskells Mill in LAC, Thundergust in Pittsgrove Twp., Thundergut in Alloway… we have a bunch of them and all have their own unique stories and history.
We have shared old articles of the lakes including Cobb’s Mill, Alloway Lake, Bostwick Lake, Laurel Lake (Quinton Lake), Daretown Lake, and have a few more coming.
You can read some of the current lakes that we have already published by visiting here.
