The beach itself is a huge outdoor recreation area. We saw plenty of families enjoying BBQs and the water. There are plenty of grassy areas if you're not interested in getting wet. There's plenty of parking and the bathrooms are large with showers, toilets and changing areas. I will say that the bathrooms are great early in the day but when we returned, they were horrendous. They were obviously never cleaned throughout the day and there was water and used sanitary items everywhere, no toilet paper left, and the stalls were disgusting. I advise to do an early morning visit and leave around midday to avoid what I saw. I ended up just changing in my car. There was no way I would gave my kid changing in those conditions. We stayed at the Wyndham cabins nearby, I'm the Fall years ago, and never even knew this placed existed until accompanying friends on a rafting trip. I would definitely come back but never will stay late unless I'm staying nearby and can wait to change clothing.

Small beach area to walk a little, maybe bring a dog; though be cautious of hooks, rocks, and other items. When I was a kid the beach was a lot bigger but they made the water walk and sidewalk above bigger, now the beach is a sliver. I would get a raft and float with it tied to the beach to enjoy the outside. Plenty of parking both street and lot. The benches are not the most comfortable, metal and thin. But they have holes for umbrellas if you want to do a lunch, or enjoy book club outdoors. The skyline isn't much but sunsets can make even the most industrial of places appealing. there are bathrooms but I've heard they're never open and I saw a porta potty the last time I was there. I think there's an official 'park' someone who either checks safety or fishing permits, I'm not sure. Down the block you have Moby Dicks, a small park with outdoor fitness, bikes to rent, and a new concert area for live music. Nice breeze and good place to just relax.

Well kept lake and beach area! The grounds were also well kept…read more Tons of lifeguards on staff! Loved that you could swim out past the roped off area if you are experienced. The swing and high dive are a must if you want to try an adventurous task! Tons of shade! Overall this place is a great time! we love that you can bring your own food, you can leave and come back, and they have a place where you can wash your feet off before exiting! Two cons in my opinion: The snack bar is lackluster and expensive. 4.50 for a hot dog....the slush puppy was good! Approximately $30 dollars for admission, a little steep. Think about it, family of 4 is 120 dollars....

IGNORANT RUDE STAFF. Singled my 9.5 son out and would not let him go past ropes b/c "his stroke…read morewasn't strong enough" EVEN THOUGH he swam back just fine unassisted with no struggle AND we were here over a year ago when he was only 8yrs old and jumped off the same platform 10+ times with 0 issues and not a problem from any of the dozen life guards (I have multiple videos to prove this). Also, there were many small kids out there and they did not require any of other kids to take the test. Our son was the only child SINGLED OUT. When he literally did the same swim/jump when he was 1 year younger here safely many times AND as parents we were watching and more than ok with him doing it, there is no reason for them to ruin his day and keep him from hanging out with his brothers and cousin. The staff here are INCOMPETENT and IGNORANT, including the snarky manager Julia!!! Just BE WARNED that they can single a child out arbitrarily and pass/fail them on a whim from teenage staff even after you pay and ruin your child's day! Since your response was spin and avoided all FACTS!!! Here are some questions that you IGNORED... Mt. Gretna Lake and Beach why was my son "safe" to multiple lifeguards a year prior who allowed him to go past the rope many times and do the jump? (I have video evidence) Were they not doing their job??? Why was my son the only child targets by the lifeguards and made to do the test? There were many children that day his size or smaller. That included a boy who was terrified to jump and paced the dive for nearly 10min holding on for dear life. More importantly, the boy could not swim at all and his parents had to bring him a tube to drag him back. My son swam unassisted last year and on Sunday. Not a single lifeguard whistled or said a thing to the terrified boy and his parents and they even allowed him to go past the rope after that whole incident. I also have video footage of this. What do you have to say about this incident that went on for 10min and was obvious to anyone there that day? Your staff is incompetent, unprofessional, and unreasonable. You targeted my family and let other major safety concerns slide. I was/am furious and will spread her word. Good thing everything on here in FACT and I can prove with videos unlike your biased spin! I'd love your answers to the above publicly!!!!

It was once part of the Morris Canal which stretched from Phillipsburg to Newark some 90 miles carrying iron, coal and zinc in the 1800's. Lake Hopatcong has both private and public beach access. Lake Hopatcong State Park has the largest public beach access. Swimming is restricted to Wed.-Sun. from 10am-9:30pm while lifeguards are on duty. The park itself opens at 8am. Lake Hopatcong has a short but nice sand beach and swimming area. Be aware that once the parking area is filled everyone coming later will be turned away. If you get to the park by 8am, hike the short trails or start up your grill for breakfast, lunch or dinner. All the grill areas have picnic tables and most have tree shaded locations. They are first come first serve.. The park also has a boat launch for larger motor boats, kayaks, sailboats, jetskies etc that can be brought unto the lake..A sand court volleyball area, basketball courts, a soccer field and playground equipment are on-site, as well. For those that have a New Jersey fishing license, fishing areas are available. Large mouth bass, sunfish, catfish, perch and pickerel can be caught. In the winter you can ice fish. The restrooms have showers and changing rooms, The concession stand has fair prices and serves burgers, hot dogs, ice cream, funnel cakes, and drinks. Dogs are premitted but must be kept on a leash no longer then six feet.

Very nice campground. Despite the reviews denigrating the owners/employees I found them to be…read morefriendly, polite and helpful. Admittedly I didn't have many interactions in the month I stayed there but what little contact I did have was all positive. I stayed for 1 full month and had a very nice campsite for my camper. The campground was clean and very wooded which I found peaceful. The lake is very nice and there are plenty of amenities including a clubhouse, mini golf, playground and regular events. I am working in the area and Evergreen was my first choice of campgrounds partly because of location and partly because it doesn't have that 'trailer park' feel due to the abundance of trees and irregularity of campsite spacing and orientation. The caveat with the trees is that getting a 30' camper in and out of the sites can be a challenge. Unfortunately I was forced to move to another campground because Evergreen didn't have 'winter' water at their regular campsites and I needed a space through the end of December. If they upgrade their water to accommodate year round campers I would move back without hesitation. Weekends the tent sites fill up and it has a different feel than through the week when it's mostly the seasonal campers but it was always nice. I would recommend Evergreen to anyone looking for a quiet, peaceful place to stay in warmer months. If you need a winter site look elsewhere.
