2017 Map of Bellaire

About this map

Bellaire serves as the focal point of this northern Michigan landscape, situated at the confluence of the Intermediate River and the Cedar River. The town is the hub of a complex hydrographic system known as the Chain of Lakes, including Intermediate Lake to the north and the expansive Lake Bellaire to the south. The 2017 terrain shows a mix of recreational development and established civic history, evidenced by a series of cemeteries such as Lakeview Cem and Fairview Cem. To the east, the topography rises sharply toward Schuss Mountain, where specialized road names like Schuss Mountain Dr and Rue De Montagne indicate the area's transition into a resort and skiing destination. Further south, the map documents the natural flow of the Grass River as it connects larger water bodies, passing through the Grass River Natural Area RD. These waterways remain central to the region's identity, linking residential pockets like North Arms with the surrounding woodlands.
