Some of our favorite places to kayak in Northern New Jersey are Merrill Creek Reservoir, Round Valley Reservoir, The Mustconetcong River, Spruce Run Recreation Area, and Oxford Furnace Lake.
Paddlerscove holds most classes and paddle days at Merrill Creek, so I thought I'd fill you all in on some features of the area.
Merrill Creek Reservoir was built atop Scotts Mountain in Warren County's Harmony Township. The water is as deep as 200 feet and encompasses about 650 acres. Boating and fishing are free. There is ample parking and a convenient boat launch. There are over 2000 acres of forest and fields surrounding Merrill Creek, full of critters like bear, deer, fox, owls, bald eagles and herons. Many Paddlerscove friends are kayak fishermen, and have been successful in catching full size lake trout, brown and rainbow trout, and also small and large mouth bass. It's a pleasure to visit the site, that's why Paddlerscove brings people there to experience paddling for the first time, and to try out boats before buying.
