Lake Hopatcong Cruises is part of the family of businesses under Live the Lake NJ. Kim loves Lake Hopatcong , and believes it is a special place. “It’s truly a vacation destination located right here hidden in the highlands of New Jersey,” she says. “It’s the largest lake in New Jersey and the views are beautiful with an amazing atmosphere.”
Kim has spent her life on the lake. She previously worked at The Windlass, a restaurant on the lake, as well as Main Lake Market, a dockside store. But she loves working at Lake Hopatcong Cruises. “It doesn’t feel like work,” she says. “I am lucky to be able to work on this beautiful lake. The owners have created an environment that make each of our businesses feel like one big family.”
Aside from her coworkers, Kim loves spending time with cruise-goers. “I love interacting with the guests whether they are from the area or have never been on the lake before. I love meeting new customers throughout the summer and helping guests create memories on Lake Hopatcong that will last forever.”
