About
Klein Lake is a beautiful and quiet lake, ideal for fishing and canoeing. The campsites are located all around the lake, and are all drive-in sites. There is on-site supervision. Cell phone reception is hit and miss in most of the campsite.
This lake is home to the rare and endangered Western Painted Turtle, please keep your dog on a leash. There are docks around the lake to prevent degradation of the lakeshore, where the turtles nest.
The site is open over the off-season, fees are in effect from April to October.
This is a CASH ONLY site. For additional information and updates, contact the Egmont Community Club at [email protected]
