Right on this road is MOUNTAIN LAKES, 1.1 miles (420 alt., 2,132 pop.), a
late nineteenth-century real-estate development that really developed. Today it is a
quiet, dignified community spread out in well-built homes around eight artificial
lakes.
LAKE ARROWHEAD, 29.9 miles (R), is in a somewhat lower region.
Perched on a hill W. of the entrance to the lake is (R) a WHITE FRAME
HOUSE with green shutters, in an adaptation of a Colonial style of archi-
tecture. It was built in 1931 by Claude A. Miller, who wrote a book about
his home, Early American House And The Fun We Had Building It.
DENVILLE, 30.6 miles (540 alt., 2,120 pop.), a Lackawanna R.R. junction, is a thriving little community whose wide main street and busy commercial center give it the appearance of a larger town. At its southwestern
tip is INDIAN LAKE, a popular summer resort, and in summer the village's population jumps to more than 10,000. Denville has a public works
system that includes a municipally owned water works and nine lake playgrounds.
Far Off US 46 and just west of Denville is BALD HILL (R) – not bald
at all, but thick with trees and studded with a gleaming water tank.
The road mounts the lower shoulder of SNAKE HILL (L).
At 32.2 miles is the junction with an improved road.
