Welcome to Rockaway

Rockaway Borough exudes small-town charm, offering a close-knit, residential feel. Though smaller than neighboring Rockaway Township, both areas are popular choices for first-time homebuyers—many of whom never want to leave once they settle in.

Rockaway Township, one of the largest municipalities in Morris County, is home to around 24,500 residents. It features beautiful lake communities, including the highly sought-after areas of Lake Telemark and White Meadow Lake. The township is surrounded by scenic parks, hiking trails, and serene lakes, making it an outdoor lover’s paradise.

Adding to the area’s appeal is the Rockaway Townsquare Mall, which helps keep property taxes more affordable than in some neighboring towns. Whether you’re looking for sporting activities or shopping, you’ll find everything you need just a few miles from home.

While NJ Transit trains don’t stop directly in the borough or township, nearby stations in Denville and Dover provide convenient access. NJ Transit offers local bus service, and Lakeland Bus Lines provides a direct route to New York City’s Port Authority Bus Terminal from Main Street. By car, the 40-mile trip to NYC takes around 45 minutes to an hour.

Rockaway is an ideal blend of suburban living with easy access to city life!
