Places to Visit & Things to Do
Star Lake Camp
Not only is Star Lake our venue, it is a gorgeous location for enjoying natural beauty. Esteban grew up on this 200+ acre woodland property. Star Lake is in a valley that has 3 lakes, trails, and beautiful views. We have gone boating, biking, and hiking. The property is beautiful, and we hope you get to enjoy it!
Curly's Ice Cream
One of our favorite ice cream places with tons of variety and a fun vibe! They have been in business since the 50's!
Palazzone 1960
Palazzone has won multiple awards from various magazines, as well as having won Jersey hearts (something notoriously difficult) for being ridiculously delicious, and it's only 20 minutes away! It is owned and operated by a first-generation immigrant Italian family. Everything made here is delicious, and they don't just serve pastries and coffee - there is huge variety of full meals and refreshments!
Penning's Farm Apple Orchard
This is a beautiful apple orchard, market place, restaurant, and brewery about 30 minutes from Star Lake Camp. We have been here multiple times and absolutely love it! So much fun all year round, but especially in the fall!
Bloomingdale HOT BAGELS & Deli
New Jersey has the BEST bagels! This is one of the many good bagel places in the area that we love, and it's five minutes away!
