2015 Map of Baywood

About this map

Interlachen and the nearby settlements of Hollister and Mannville anchor the southern portion of this landscape, characterized by a dense concentration of water bodies. The terrain is defined by a distinct cluster of named lakes, including Lake Grandin, Violet Lake, Lake Virginia, and Boll Green Lake, which have long shaped the residential and recreational patterns of this part of Putnam County. Moving north, the map shows the crossing of the Florida National Scenic Trail, which traverses through Baywood and near Carraway. Local history and genealogy are supported by several identified burial sites such as Mei-Wun Cem, Naomi Cem, and Mary Elizabeth Cem. Small waterways like Etonia Cr, Oldtown Branch, and Rice Creek drain the area, while the legacy of early transportation remains visible through corridors like Old Starke RD and the Old Gainesville HWY Hunter RD.
