The Cropsey Overlook borders the picturesque Richmond County Country Club Golf Course, and offers distant views of Raritan Bay and New Jersey's Atlantic Highlands. The Overlook gets its name from 19th century American painter, Jasper Cropsey, whose painting, Looking Oceanward From Todt Hill depicts the overlook vista and is well known among collectors of 19th century American art.
