Howell Township in Monmouth County, NJ, is located just a few short miles from the Jersey Shore communities of Manasquan and Point Pleasant. It is a desirable, semi-rural community that enjoys the benefits of living near the beach as well as being within commuting distance to Philadelphia and New York City.
The Manasquan Reservoir in Howell Township, one of it’s most precious resources, offers nature and sports-related activities such as fishing, bird watching, jogging, biking, dog walking, and a nature exhibit for viewing local wildlife.
