2013 Map of Cottage Grove

About this map

Cottage Grove and its surrounding agricultural landscape appear here as a mixture of traditional dairy farming and modern rural development in eastern Dane County. The map identifies legacy agricultural sites such as Kurt Dairy Farms and Meinpferde Farm, alongside aviation-focused landmarks like Blackhawk Airfield and Quale Airport. Small historical settlements and crossroads including Seminary Springs, Taylors Corners, and Hoffman Corners are clearly marked, providing essential context for local historians and genealogists. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Door Cr and Koshkonong Cr, with Liberty Mound standing as a notable geographic feature. Several local orchards, including Door Creek Orchard, point to the region's diverse agricultural output during this era of transitioning land use between the growing Madison suburbs and established rural communities.
