About this map

Clear Lake dominates the southern portion of this landscape, its western shoreline defining the community of Ventura. This modern survey reveals a highly structured agricultural grid in the surrounding northern territory, punctuated by the winding course of the Winnebago River and the wetlands of Mallard Marsh Swamp. The lakefront itself is densely developed, featuring recreational landmarks such as the Iowa Regular Baptist Camp, All Vets Golf Course, and Relly Point.

A network of named roads, including Balsam Ave and Dogwood Ave, connects the rural hinterland to the lakeside settlements. The transition from the open waters of the lake to the riparian corridors of Willow Cr illustrates the hydrology of Cerro Gordo County. Local researchers can use this map to identify specific properties and community sites established along N Shore Dr and Lido Rd as they existed in the early 21st century.
