This Hidden Island in New Jersey is One of the Best in America

We all know how beautiful it is living in Ocean County and the Jersey Shore. I had no idea about this hidden island.

From the website dep.nj.com: "A short 15-minute boat ride from the Sedge Dock at Island Beach State Park takes you to the island. The renovated duck hunting lodge dates to over 100 years old, and is full of history of famous sportsmen, historians, and conservationists. Sedge Island continues to fuel memories as it is home to scientists, researchers, and explorers who wish to experience the “magic of sedge.” The sunrise wakes the house each day and the marsh comes alive around it!"
