We went to Cooper's Pond Park a few weeks ago in the afternoon. A short, nature walk with our family, it was serene and scenic. The walking path was good to follow along and it was peaceful for all visitors. We watched as several people were fishing by Cooper's pond. Looked like a great activity to do together or solo. Plenty of great water views at different angles. Bike paths were used along the nature paths too. For a short trip out in nature, this was a beautiful place to go. Ducks and geese were all around, watch out for their poop! Enjoy their presence. read more

Well kept park, nice place to take a walk, could potentially use for remote work but didn't see tables but plenty of benches. Not sure if museum is actually open but there is one there. read more

Small pond with walking trail around it. No dogs are allowed. Ducks and geese wonder around in the park. We saw turtles and fishes in the pond too. Some trash in the pond, could be from the storm that we just had. I hope they have staff/volunteers to clean it? Still a very good place to visit for quick outdoor activity. read more

This is my favorite park in town! If you enjoy fishing you can try your hand at some of fishes in the pond. If fishing isn't your thing you can stand in the gizibo and admire the pound. My boyfriend and I like to take laps around the pond with his dog. He even like to take a swim in pond! Behind the red house there's even a historical museum. Great park! read more

Beautiful pond surrounded by a walking path, picnic tables, 9-11 memorial, and a gazebo that sits at the center. The only downfall is the geese and the poop they leave, but I just stay away from their area when it's that time of year. It's a peaceful setting with the weeping willows over the pond. The only time I've seen it busy is during town-wide events. This is the home of the Bergenfield xmas tree and where Santa visits the day of the tree lighting. I've seen people fishing occasionally and even catch a fish or two on occasion. My family and I love to spend evenings here hanging out before the sun goes. read more

This place is pretty cool! It's about a .5 mile paved loop around a pond with out any real incline. Perfect for joggers (can get muddy though). A major highlight for me was the equipment. I've never seen free exercise equipment in a park before. We saw turtle geese and hedgehogs. The old willow trees make this the perfect spot. I'm not sure if it was because of Covid but the trash/garbage was out of control. That was my only complaint on read more

Cooper's Pond Park - View from bridge - Parks Near Me - Bergenfield, New Jersey

The park is beautiful, nice areas to relax, parking is very limited. The pond needs some work, it's very dirty, I fished there one day for 3-4hrs, I caught an KN95 masks, two different socks and part of a truck strap, I also caught 2 small fish. Water is very dirty, I lost 2 fishing lures/spinners and 3 hooks with worms. I doubt that the fish can see anything, the same lures/spinners were catching fish at the reservoir the day before, caught 10 medium/large fish in the same amount of time, didn't lose anything. read more

This pond is a hidden gem in bergenfield. When I walk in it almost seems like I'm not in Jersey anymore. Very beautiful scenery and trees. There is a gazibo,walking/jogging trail,plenty of benches,and a big pond. My family and I come here through out the year mostly in the summer or spring to hang out and enjoy the great outdoors. Very peaceful and there is usually kids fishing in the pond. The town even holds events here like a x Mas party with Santa or a Halloween parade for the kids. There is also a museum that is open on the weekend afternoons. Check this place out if your in the neighborhood. read more

It's a nice little spot however it does not allow dogs. A previous review stated they brought their dogs. As we walked around the pond we saw the signs that said no dogs. Shame as it's close by and not many parks around for people and dogs to walk . read more

Perfect place to exercise, walk, or just hangout. Also a great place to get pictures taken. No pets allowed. read more

Cooper's Pond is a beautiful park in Bergenfield. It has a small parking lot, a boat house where the town holds occasional activities, and a nice jogging/walking trail along the pond. There are also plenty of benches and picnic tables to have a nice lunch, play a game, or just watch the birds. You can also fish. They lose a star because dogs are banned. This doesn't seem like the kind of small, manicured park where dogs would be a huge nuisance or disruption. As a responsible dog owner who leashes and cleans up after my dogs, I hate being discriminated against because of irresponsible people. All rants aside, this is a nice little park if you're in the area. read more

I used to come to this park almost every day during my one hour lunch break from work during the warm weather days. I would come here to do a couple of laps of walking around the park, catch up on homework, or to sit and eat. The gazebo is my most favorite as well as the charming little wishing well in the area of where the museum is. This park is peaceful clean and just a great place to go to when you need to catch a break. They even have a little working out area where there's equipment to use. read more

My go to spot when I need a break. Love this pond and the walking path. It's a good walk - maybe a 10 min walk around the pond. So I do a few laps. Sadly one side of it gets very muddy at times - wish they'd add more gravel to the path on that side. So beware! Half of the path is paved with soft street lighting. It's a beautiful place to take photos - the ones here don't do it justice. The mill and water fall are really nice and there's a museum behind the mill - kinda fun to step back in time to see what life was like in the turn of the century when this was a working mill and furniture factory. (Open on weekends) They've now added an outdoor workout section right off the path with equipment for free to use and meditation area. This is where town events occur too- the annual Christmas festival is here with Santa and gifts for every child! The summer fishing derby. They stock the pond. Once it froze and you could skate on it- very rare! The Garden club meets here and sells plants here. They've held memorials here and thrown rose petals into the pond. The old South Church is next to it. Kids come here for prom pictures. Beautiful!! This is probably the prettiest area of Bergenfield. read more

Picturesque pond with brick walks and benches to spend a quiet afternoon reading and taking in the beauty of this tranquil park.
