About Port Morris

Port Morris is a quiet, close-knit neighborhood tucked along the eastern edge of Lake Musconetcong in Roxbury Township. Bordering Netcong and Landing in western Morris County, it offers a relaxed lakeside setting with only a few hundred residents. The area got its unique name back when it served as an inland shipping stop along the historic Morris Canal, and that waterside backdrop still defines the community today.

Living here puts outdoor recreation right in your backyard, with Lake Musconetcong and nearby Hopatcong State Park providing great spots for kayaking, fishing, and boating. The neighborhood carries the quiet charm of its early railroad and canal roots while remaining practical for everyday life. Commuters are just minutes from Route 80, Route 46, and the Netcong train station, making trips across North Jersey straightforward.
