The largest private lake in New Jersey, named after the Native American tribe.

Lake Mohawk is a census-designated place and an unincorporated area located in parts of both Byram Township and Sparta Township, in Sussex County, New Jersey. As of the United States 2000 Census, the CDP population was 9,755.

The community is located around Lake Mohawk, the largest artificial body of water in the state of New Jersey that is a private lake. There are two other small lakes in the mountains of the community, the Upper Mohawk Lake and the Alpine Pool, both of which are spring fed. The water for the Alpine Pool cascades down gracefully from a spring that rises from an even higher peak in the mountains. An alpine motif was used throughout the community.
