2010 Map of Brushy Creek

About this map

Toledo Bend Reservoir dominates this landscape along the Texas-Louisiana border, where the inundated valley of the Sabine River creates a complex system of inlets and peninsulas. The 2010 geography reveals the intricate shoreline around Buzzard Bend and Silvie Bend, showing how the reservoir transformed former creek bottoms into navigable waterways. Inland, a network of timber and access roads like 147 Forestry Rd and Fanchers Landing Rd weave through the forest, serving the rural community and recreational traffic. On the Louisiana side, the settlement of Ebarb sits near the water, while numerous named drainages such as Brushy Creek, Yellow Branch, and McGrue Creek illustrate the original drainage pattern before the damming of the river. This map serves as a detailed record of water access points, including Snyders Boat Ramp, reflecting the area's transition into a major regional destination for fishing and outdoor life.
