Baptiste Lake Recreation Area Beach. Baptiste Lake is named after settler Majeau Baptiste. The beach is sandy and the waters shallow. Baptiste Lake generally has high levels of algal growth with a history of blue green algae blooms in the months of July and August. The beach in the recreation area has all of the day use and camping amenities. Baptiste is a very developed lake so expect a lot of boat traffic but the swimming area is clearly marked.
