    Woodcliff Lake is a borough in Bergen County, New Jersey which in 2010 had a population of 5,370 persons. The town started in 1894 and was originally named Woodcliff. In 1910, after a reservoir was created, the town was renamed to Woodcliff Lake. In 1950, the town started using Old Mill Pond as the town's swimming pool, a small, nearly silted-up mill pond near the headwaters of the Musquapsink Brook. The town improved the site by adding partial sand beach, a water slide, two diving boards, swimming lanes, and other water activities for kids.
