Township Council meeting March 9

Vernon Township in Sussex County offers a relaxed, outdoorsy feel with pockets of lake communities, wooded neighborhoods, and open farmland. Many people are drawn to areas like Highland Lakes and nearby developments for their sense of privacy and scenery, while still having everyday conveniences close by. Living options range from lakefront homes and cabins to newer single-family houses and condos, including places near resort amenities.

For recreation, residents have easy access to trail networks, scenic drives, and destinations like Mountain Creek and the Crystal Springs area for dining, golf, and spa time. Route 94 and nearby connections make it practical to reach neighboring towns in New Jersey and across the state line for work, shopping, and errands. With cooler mornings and clear skies often nudging people outside, Vernon tends to suit those who want space to breathe without feeling far removed from modern life.
