2024 Map of Barnett Shoals
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
Barnetts Shoals and the surrounding rural landscapes of Oconee County are defined by the winding course of the Oconee River, which carves through the terrain to form Horseshoe Bend. This area, situated south of Athens, is characterized by a dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Corinth Cem, Tuck Cem, and Big Creek Hardshell Cem, highlighting the deep ancestral roots in this region. The landscape transitions from the southern fringes of the city into the wooded reaches of the Oconee National Forest. Roadways like Elder Mill Rd and Barnett Shoals Rd connect small settlements such as Rose Hill and Elder, reflecting a long-standing agricultural and river-based economy. Numerous creeks, including Shoal Creek and Wildcat Creek, further divide the land, creating a network of small valleys and ridges like Coon Mtn.
