Mohawk Meadows

Nestled at 1 O'Brien Lane in Lafayette, New Jersey, Mohawk Meadows is a skilled nursing facility that provides residents with professional medical care in one of Sussex County's most scenic and tranquil settings. Lafayette sits in the heart of New Jersey's Skylands region — a landscape defined by rolling hills, forested ridges, and the open farmland that makes this corner of the state feel a world apart from the urban bustle of the coast.

Kittatinny Valley State Park is just a short drive away, offering accessible trails, wildlife observation, and serene lake views that make for restorative family outings. High Point State Park, home to New Jersey's highest elevation, is within easy reach to the north, and the Paulinskill Valley Trail — a flat, paved rail trail stretching across Sussex County — is ideal for light outdoor activity. The Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area lies to the west, giving the region an abundance of natural beauty that supports resident well-being and family visits year-round. The nearby town of Newton, Sussex County's seat, provides essential services including the county's primary hospital, Newton Medical Center (an Atlantic Health System facility), approximately ten miles from Mohawk Meadows. Newton's downtown offers locally owned shops, cafes, and the historic Newton Theatre. The Village of Lafayette itself is home to Lafayette Village, a popular antique and specialty retail destination that draws visitors from across the region.

The clinical team provides 24-hour nursing care, rehabilitative therapies, and individualized medical management for residents with complex care needs.
