Kangaroo Lake dominates the central landscape of this Door County quadrangle, situated between the interior forests and the jagged coastline of Lake Michigan. The map illustrates the geographical transition from the western village of Egg Harbor to the eastern settlement of Baileys Harbor, where the land yields to extensive wetlands like the Baileys Harbor Swamp and Button Marsh. These low-lying areas, fed by waterways such as Hibbard Cr and Heins Creek, provide a detailed look at the peninsula's natural drainage patterns. Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented throughout the area, including Saint Mary's of the Lake Cem, Saint Paul Lutheran Cem, and the Baileys Harbor Town Cem. The road network, from Peninsula Players Rd to Half Mile Bridge Dr, connects family farms and coastal properties during this period of the twenty-first century.
