About this map

Lake Whitney dominates the landscape at the boundary of Bosque and Hill Counties, shaping the development of the surrounding communities. The shoreline is marked by prominent peninsulas and landings such as Allen Bend and Walling Bend, where residential pockets like Lakewood Harbor and the neighborhood around Scenic Dr have established themselves. The area's older history is preserved at Cedron Cem, located near the winding path of Cedron Cr before it meets the reservoir.

Transport through the area relies on a network of rural routes, including Farm Rd 56 and Fm 1713, which connect the scattered settlements and recreational areas. The topography transitions from the flat expanse of McCowan Valley to the sharp elevation of Bee Bluff, overlooking the water. Tributaries like King Cr and Rocky Cr drain the inland sections, illustrating the natural drainage patterns that existed long before the modern lakeside developments.
