Mauricetown is a riverfront hamlet in Cumberland County where 19th‑century sea captains’ houses line quiet streets and sunsets spill across the Maurice River. The village’s maritime past is on full display through the Mauricetown Historical Society, which preserves local lore and architecture and hosts seasonal programs that bring neighbors together. Life moves at a relaxed cadence here, with tidal views, porch gatherings, and easy access to township services via Commercial Township.
Outdoors, residents prize world‑class birding and bayshore scenery. Nearby, schooners and Delaware Bay history come alive at the Bayshore Center at Bivalve, while the beacon at the East Point Lighthouse rewards sunset chasers and photographers. Conservation‑minded locals connect with guided walks and restoration projects through CU Maurice River. For arts, glass, and festivals, the studios and galleries of Millville and the shops and eateries in Vineland are just up the road, making errands and evenings out effortless.
Families appreciate practical school options: K–8 students attend the local schools of Commercial Township, and teens continue through Millville Public Schools. Cultural field trips, shoreline exploration, and hands‑on science are part of everyday learning thanks to the bayshore’s living classroom and regional institutions like WheatonArts.
