2011 Map of Beekmantown

About this map

Lake Champlain dominates the eastern edge of this Clinton County landscape, defining a shoreline marked by numerous points and bays such as Savage Point and Wool Point. This coastal orientation is balanced by an inland network of small waterways including Dead Creek, Riley Brook, and the Little Chazy River. The interior reflects a mix of small hamlets and agricultural tradition, centered around the primary settlements of Beekmantown, East Beekmantown, and Ingraham. The mapping of several small burial grounds, including the Doane Cemetery and Trombley Bay Cemetery, provides vital points of reference for genealogists tracking families in the area north of Plattsburgh. Public recreation areas like Saint Armand Beach near Middle Point illustrate the region's enduring connection to the water, while the presence of Stratton Hill offers a rare elevation point in the relatively low-lying terrain near the lake.
