Montague Township, ‘a real small-town feel’
Montague Township, 70 miles from Newark, is the only New Jersey municipality bordering both Pennsylvania and New York. The township is primarily composed of state lands and protected areas with rolling green hills and recreational opportunities near the surrounding lakes and trails. Many move to the area because of the school district and low property taxes. “It is a real small-town feel in Sandyston and Montague,” says Marjorie Morville, a local Realtor and sales associate with Coldwell Banker Realty, adding that small class sizes at district schools and "reasonable taxes" attract people to this northern part of Sussex County.

Views of three states from High Point State Park
A monolith stands at the highest point in New Jersey on the summit of Kittatinny Ridge in High Point State Park. The High Point Monument is dedicated to New Jersey veterans, and those visiting the structure have a scenic view of New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. The High Point Cross Country Ski Center offers lessons and trail passes during the winter, as well as year-round activities such as hiking, boating and fishing on all four of the park's lakes. Morville says that anglers also frequent Flatbrook River in Stokes State Forest, which is stocked with trout. The Delaware River borders the area and is another popular spot for fishing and boating. High Point Golf Club surrounds the private Holiday Lake, allowing for scenic views while playing its 18-hole course.
