Woodcliff Lake Community

Woodcliff Lake is located in the Pascack Valley at its highest point. Home to approximately 6,000 residents, this town is a scenic borough, with lush woodlands, streams, secluded properties, and the jewel of Woodcliff Lake Reservoir at its center. Historic houses and other structures are plentiful here and preserve the colonial days dating back to the 1700s.  

As is true with other communities in Bergen County, Woodcliff Lake has a wonderful public school system. The natural setting of this community has allowed it to maintain its rural atmosphere, with many of its residential and commercial structures hidden from view by the green wooded area surrounding the reservoir. It is one of the most desirable places imaginable to live, within easy driving/commuting distance to New York City, yet completely removed from the hustle and bustle of city life.
