Black Bear at Crystal Golf Resort in Franklin is one of Sussex County's flagship resort courses, occupying the Kittatinny Mountain foothills in Franklin Borough near the town famous for its fluorescent mineral deposits and the Sterling Hill Mining Museum. The resort's Crystal Golf umbrella includes multiple courses across the Sussex County highlands, and Black Bear takes advantage of the area's dramatic mountain terrain — elevation changes, rocky outcrops, and mature hardwood forest — that simply cannot be replicated in the flat southern half of New Jersey.
