2014 Map of Columbiaville

About this map

The Flint River winds through this section of Lapeer County, anchoring the village of Columbiaville and flowing south toward the expansive Holloway Reservoir. This landscape is defined by its complex glacial hydrology, evidenced by numerous named kettles and drains such as Hemmingway Lake, Gawdy Lake, and the Forest Drain. Near the northern border, the settlement of Otter Lake straddles the line between Lapeer and Genesee counties, serving as a secondary local hub. For those tracing family histories or land use, the map clearly identifies several rural burial grounds, including Woodlawn Cem and Hollenbeck Cem, while the intricate network of local roads like Marathon Rd and Otter Lake Rd connects these scattered communities and water bodies across the Lapeer, Genesee, and Tuscola county intersections.
