NJ across from Manhattan is pretty nice, actually. The Palisades are really impressive and wild, and a lot closer to the core than the Marin headlands are to the SF core.
You walk/bike across the GW Bridge and there are dramatic cliffs, black bears, and hiking to the Appalachian Trail.
Of course, other parts of NJ suck, but that's true in parts of the Bay Area too. Hayward and Union City are ugly.
