A lakeside lifestyle in Mount Arlington
In Mount Arlington, you can vacation where you live. "Mount Arlington has really old lakefront homes that have historical significance. Some of them used to be hotels or private residences from back in the day that are still standing," says Realtor Patrick Bolger with The Holmquist Group of Keller Williams Metropolitan. Bolger notes that Lotta Crabtree, a celebrated actress in the 1800s, had an 18-room summer cottage in Mount Arlington. The home, where Crabtree held parties, rode horses and painted, still stands. Her former estate recently hit the market for $3.5 million. Today, Mount Arlington residents still enjoy lake life at this former summer resort community for New Yorkers, but most of them enjoy it 365 days a year.

Recreation centered on Lake Hopatcong and local parks
While many folks associate Lake Hopatcong, the largest freshwater body of water in the entire state, with nearby Hopatcong, the lake is also part of Mount Arlington. In fact, most of the lake's iconic history originates from the Mount Arlington side, Bolger says. "There used to be a lakefront amusement park on Bertrand Island. It had a roller coaster and merry-go-round," Bolger says. While the park closed in the 1980s, Mount Arlington is home to the Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club. Recognized by the national and New Jersey Register of Historic Places, the yacht club hosts many social events in the spring and summer, like the annual antique boat show and Fourth of July fireworks. Young residents can join junior sailing leagues and there are weekly dinners for members. If the yacht club isn’t for you, your happy place could be Mount Arlington Municipal Beach, a public space for residents to enjoy the lake. At Memorial Park, you can walk among the tall trees or bring your kids to the Fireman's Field Park playground. The Berkshire Valley Wildlife Management Area runs parallel to the town. You can go hiking and find Snoopy, the famous beagle from the "Peanuts" comic strip. (Someone has playfully made a doghouse and placed a Snoopy figurine inside).
