2020 Map of Devils Lake

About this map

Lincoln City serves as the gateway to this coastal landscape, situated where the freshwater of Devils Lake meets the Pacific margin. The terrain transitions rapidly from the developed shoreline at Lake Point into the dense timber and complex ridge systems of the Siuslaw National Forest. Notable elevations like Ball Mtn and Prairie Hill overlook a drainage network defined by Schooner Cr and Drift Creek. To the south, the geography is dominated by the meandering Siletz River, which creates distinctive landforms such as Chinook Bend and Windy Bend. This area includes the Siletz Bay National Wildlife Refuge, protecting the estuarine environment where Borges Cr and Tide Slough converge. Cultural markers including the Pacific View Memorial Gardens and small settlements like Coyote Rock illustrate the human presence tucked between the river bends and the forested slopes of Medicine Rock.
