Big Brook Preserve, 95 Hillsdale Rd, Colts Neck, NJ 07722, US

Arguably one of the most peaceful places in Howell, Echo Lake Park provides a little bit of everything for local residents while being just a few minutes from the hustle and bustle of Route 9. There is 18 acres of land that includes a pavilion which can be rented out, the lake with benches to sit at and picnic facilities is a good place to come to get some fresh air or go for a walk. The lake can also be used for fishing or kayaking and there is a nature trail that winds its way through the property.
