2016 Map of Bernie Lake

About this map

The boundary between Callahan Co and Eastland Co divides this West Texas landscape, where the rural settlement of Dothan sits near the southwestern corner. This area is defined by a complex network of waterways and reservoirs, most notably Lake Cisco in the east and the smaller Bernie Lake nearby. Local genealogy and history are anchored at the Dothan Cem, located just north of the I-20 Access Rd corridor. The terrain is deeply etched by various drainage systems, including the meandering paths of Cottonwood Cr, Sandy Cr, and Battle Cr. These streams feed several localized water bodies such as Battle Creek Channel Lake and the Dothan Water Station Lake, reflecting the vital role of water management in this cattle-and-oil-producing region of the Texas rolling plains.
