Places where you can sit and relax near bodies of water (of any size)

Any ideas? The water can be small, like a pond, or big, as long as you can sit and relax near water. I’m thinking of Closter or Englewood specifically but feel free to share recs anywhere in the county.

Bergen parents, what matters most when choosing a summer camp?

I’m curious to hear from other parents in Bergen County:

What matters most when choosing a summer camp for your child?

Small groups? Sports? Structure? Outdoors? Staff quality? A place where kids actually grow?

I’ve worked with junior tennis kids in Fort Lee for years, and we’ve run a summer program since 2018. We host up to 50 kids per week across five courts, while keeping structure and attention a priority, and I’m always interested in hearing how parents think about camps beyond convenience or just filling the day.

Would love to hear what matters most to you.

Venues looking for bands to fill time slots

Hello everyone!

I'm in a band and we're looking to book shows at any venues in the county and surrounding areas.

I thought I'd post here in case any suggestions come up.

If anyone has suggestions of bars/venues that host gigs I can contact, it would be greatly appreciated

Would you go to a silent disco in Bergen County or is that weird?

Genuine question. I’ve been running silent disco setups around Bergen County and I still get mixed reactions when people hear it for the first time.

It’s basically a full party but everyone’s on wireless headphones with different music channels, so you can switch between DJs or vibes whenever you want. No noise complaints, no blasting speakers, and honestly it gets pretty funny watching people sing along to completely different songs.

We don’t have a “location” either. We bring the whole setup and run it wherever. Backyards, breweries, schools, fundraisers, wherever it makes sense.

Trying to get a feel for it locally… is this something people here would actually go to or book for a party, or does it sound like one of those things that’s better in theory?

Pascack valley line / NJ Transit

Hi all! Looking for some insight. I'm starting a job in Newark in a few weeks and live in northern bergen county + I'm considering taking the train instead of driving (Pascack Valley line --> Seacaucus, transfer --> Newark).

For context, I'm not a resident of any of the towns that the PV line stops in. In the past, I've had someone drop me off at the station in the morning + pick me up in the evening.

This summer, I won't have anyone to drive me to/from the station + I want to avoid paying for the train station parking permits, if possible. Is there a station that is more favorable to non-residential parking, even if it just means parking on a nearby side street and walking over? Preferably, looking for something within the Westwood/North Hackensack range, but just trying to gauge if this would be possible without buying a permit.

Hello,

I am looking for a place to celebrate my sons birthday. He turns 7.

I was looking for a place in the areas, Paramus, Hackensack, Little Ferry, Fair Lawn or somewhere nearby.

From your experience what is the best indoor playground for kids of this age because everything seems super expensive with just 2 hours events.

I would appreciate everyone’s experience.

Thank you

FIFA rental advice as apt owner?

I was wondering if anybody has had success renting out an apartment for FIFA and if so, are you doing it nightly, weekly, or monthly? How are you advising renters to get to MetLife from your rental?

What advice would you give someone who’s considering renting out an apt?

I happen to have a partially furnished apt and I’m thinking of renting it for FIFA before I decide what to do with it longer term.

I’ve only had close family members staying there after a horrible tenant years ago. The idea of listing it on Airbnb makes me nervous since I also live on the property but I feel like it’s also an opportunity to make some money without having a long term tenant.
