The vibe

Kinloch is a small lakeside village on the northern shore, about 20 minutes from town. It is best known for its marina, its golf course and a summer population that swells with bach-goers.

Out of season it is quiet and friendly. The W2K section of the Great Lake Trail starts nearby for walkers and riders.
