Ramapo Mountain Lakes Inc (RML) is a NJ PRED* based in Oakland, NJ. RML, at present, owns Crystal Lake and Mirror Lake along with a couple of vacant lots on Mirror Lake. The core purpose of RML is to collect dues that are used for the preservation of RML properties and compliance with NJ state and DEP regulations.
PRED stands for Planned Real Estate Development. RML falls under NJ PREDFDA laws for how business is conducted.
RML maintains a working relationship with Crystal Lake Community Beach (CLCB) which runs a Beach Club open to residents of Oakland on Crystal Lake. Any questions about membership or operations should be pursued via their website.
Dues are mandatory for all shareholders and are ratioed based on derived market value from the lakes. Members in Good Standing can run for Board positions and vote on shareholder matters. Unlike other lake communities, RML does not offer amenities (other than the ability to bring a non-gas-powered boat on either lake). Historically, several of the properties that were used for exclusive amenities were either sold off or opened to the public.
