About this map

Compass Lake serves as the focal point of this 1950s interior Florida landscape, where the borders of Washington, Jackson, Bay, and Calhoun counties converge. The settlement of Compass Lake is situated along the eastern shore, positioned near a Lookout Tower and the critical corridor of the Atlanta and St Andrews Bay railroad. This rail line provided an essential link through the piney woods and swamps of the Panhandle, facilitating the movement of timber and goods between the northern counties and the coast.
