About this map

St. James serves as the primary hub of this northern Lake Michigan island community, centered around the protected Saint James Harbor. The settlement's connection to the mainland is maintained via the Beaver Island Ferry, which docks near the foot of Donegal Bay Rd. Inland, the landscape is defined by a series of significant wetlands and water bodies, including Sweeney Swamp, Green Swamp, and Font Lake. Local history is anchored by the Holy Cross Cem and a network of roads named for resident families, such as Wojan Dr and Hannon Dr. Transportation infrastructure is surprisingly robust for an island setting, featuring both the Beaver Island Airport and the privately-owned Welke Airport. The western shoreline is punctuated by prominent landmarks like McCauley Point and Oliver Point, framing the island's unique maritime character.
