2012 Map of Corkscrew

About this map

Corkscrew and its surrounding wetlands define this portion of Collier County, where the transition from agriculture to residential development is visible through a grid of rural lanes and remote airstrips. The landscape is characterized by prominent high points amidst the marshy terrain, such as Big Corkscrew Island, Eagle Island, and Hogan Island, which represent historical focal points in an area traditionally defined by its seasonal water levels. To the east, the waters of Lake Trafford mark a significant hydrological feature of the region. Transportation in this era is a mix of established routes like Corkscrew Rd and specialized infrastructure like the Corkscrew Trace Airport. The presence of names like Oil Grade Rd points to the region's history of extraction and industry, while a network of minor roads like Mulholland Dr and Katydid Ln suggests the parceling of land for rural residential use.
