About this map

Checotah stands as the primary hub in this McIntosh County landscape, organized by a precise grid of residential streets like NW Main St and W McIntosh Ave. To the southwest, the expansive waters of Eufaula Lake dominate the geography, reaching into the many inlets of Fountainhead State Park. This recreation-focused area is defined by features such as the Fountainhead Lodge Airpark and numerous planned residential developments along the shoreline with street names like Tauhina and Custer.

South of the main town, the small community of Onapa sits near the banks of Onapa Lake, marking a transition from the structured urban layout of Checotah to a more rural network of section line roads. Water management is a visible priority for the region, evidenced by Checotah City Lake E and several named tributaries including Elk Cr and Fife Cr that feed the larger reservoir system. For those researching local history, the map preserves the locations of Green Lawn Cem and Richard Cem.
