About this map

The Grand River and Thornapple River converge near the settlement of Ada, creating a landscape defined by significant river bends and alluvial valleys. In this 2019 data, the suburban character of Forest Hills and Cascade is evident through an extensive network of residential streets such as Thorncrest Dr SE and Bridgewater Dr SE. The area maintains several small airfields, including Somerville Airport and the Van Strien Company Airport along the riverbanks.

Local history is preserved in several rural burying grounds like Vergennes Cem, Krum Blanding Cem, and Snow Cem, which are scattered throughout the township. Outdoor recreation is highlighted by the N Country National Scenic Trail winding through the northern sections, while Quiggle Lake remains a prominent water feature to the south. This survey illustrates the contemporary balance between Kent County's natural river corridors and its expanding residential developments.
