The Great Dismal Swamp dominates the western half of this modern study of Chesapeake, where the historic Dismal Swamp Canal and its accompanying Dismal Swamp Canal Trl parallel the Intracoastal Waterway. This area preserves a complex water system including Deep Creek in the north and New Mill Creek through the center, illustrating how the landscape transitions from managed wetlands to the suburban growth of Grassfield and Bells Mill.
