Lake Sonoma

Lake Sonoma (13 acres) is in West Milford, Passaic County. It is in Norvin Green State Forest. To access the lake, one has to park on Crescent Drive, then hike along a fairly difficult trail for about an hour. The best launch site is next to the dam. The effort is worth it (if one has light boats - we used pack-rafts) as the lake is very pretty.
