About this map

Charlevoix serves as the focal point of this coastal landscape, situated where Round Lake meets the expansive waters of Lake Michigan. The town's maritime character is evident in the Breakwater and Serwall protecting the channel, while the local infrastructure includes a Municipal Airport and Townhall. Beyond the immediate harbor, the shoreline transitions to the natural reaches of Fishermans Island State Park, which encompasses Fisherman Island just offshore.

Southward, the terrain shifts into the townships of Norwood and Marion, defined by a network of rural roads like Veenstra Road and Ferry Road. Small rural centers like Barnard and Boulder Park anchor the inland areas, interspersed with local industry marked by several Quarry and Gravel Pit operations. Genealogists will find the locations of Brookside Cem and St Marys Cem particularly useful for tracing family roots in this corner of the Michigan coast.
