Catahoula and the neighboring settlements of Catahoula Cove and Coteau Holmes define the inhabited landscape of Saint Martin Parish in this 2015 study. The geography is dominated by the massive Atchafalaya Basin Floodway, which contains a intricate network of waterways including Grand Coulee, Crocodile Bayou, and Bayou La Rose. The map provides specific genealogical detail through the location of Our Lady of the Lake Cem, situated near the banks of Catahoula Lake. A dense network of local roads such as Sidney Guidry Rd and Clovis Borel Rd illustrates the rural development patterns of the region, while landmarks like Willow Lake and Bay Baron point to the area's deep-rooted connection to the wetlands of southern Louisiana.
