2018 Map of Cloverdale

About this map

Cloverdale serves as the focal point of this northern Sonoma County landscape, situated where the Russian River valley opens south of the Mendocino County line. The settlement pattern shows a transition from the structured street grid of the town center to the surrounding agricultural and mountain terrain. To the north, the small community of Preston is tucked near the river, while to the south, the expansive waters of Lake Sonoma are visible, fed by Brush Creek and Smith Creek. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Redwood Mtn and Pritchett Peaks, framing the fertile Alexander Valley and Oat Valley. Local history is anchored by landmarks such as the Cloverdale Cem and the former resort area at Alderglen Springs, illustrating the region's long-standing connection to both viticulture and the natural springs of the Coastal Range.
