Fishing is a popular activity at Hobb Lake. Great Times Day Camp, situated on Hobb Lake, is one of Southern New Jersey's popular summer camps. Camp Haluwasa, an older and still popular Christian children's camp and retreat, is located directly adjacent with its own 60 acres of lake waters, fed by Hobb Lake.
