Mahoras Brook is an approximately 3.5 miles (5.6 km) long spring-fed[1] tributary of Waackaack Creek[2] that flows through Monmouth County, New Jersey.[3] It rises in a small glen shortly west of Middletown, at 40°25′12″N 74°08′13″W / 40.4201°N 74.1370°W / 40.4201; -74.1370 (Mahoras Brook (source)) and makes a bend north, flowing through the northwest section of Tatum Park. The creek flows under Holland Road and runs north in a small, forested swale through a dominantly residential area, roughly paralleling Laurel Avenue (County Route 52), and receives a small tributary on the left bank. Then it flows under New Jersey State Route 35 and soon, its mouth is on the left bank of Waackaack Creek[4] at 40°23′22″N 74°08′13″W / 40.3894°N 74.1370°W / 40.3894; -74.1370 (Mahoras Brook (mouth))Coordinates: 40°23′22″N 74°08′13″W / 40.3894°N 74.1370°W / 40.3894; -74.1370 (Mahoras Brook (mouth)).
