Review & FAQ:
Built in the 1960s, Spruce Run Reservoir was one of the first reservoirs in the state and is still one of the largest. A public swimming beach is open during the summer months, and there are several picnic areas that offer excellent views of the reservoir. The waters are home to almost 30 species of fish, and it's widely known as one of the best bass fishing lakes in New Jersey. The lake's irregular shoreline is perfect for exploring by canoe or by kayak, but boats are permitted as well as long as their engines are under ten horsepower.
