Egypt Meadow Lake was created by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1935. Earlier the area was covered with hollow, soft, meadow grass that was harvested and used as packing material for the famous Dorflinger's Glass Works in White Mills, Pa. The glass works began in 1865 and was the largest glassware center in the United States until after World War I, when competition from abroad made profitable manufacturing impossible. This lake is state owned, acces is hike in only.
