About this map

Lake Cherokee dominates the northern landscape of this East Texas terrain, straddling the border between Gregg and Rusk counties. The water system is particularly intricate here, with the sprawling Beaver Marsh and a network of named drainages like Mill Creek, Boggy Creek, and Bacon Creek feeding the local hydrology. These wetlands and creeks define the rural character of the area, where small settlements such as Monroe, Oak Hill, and Stewart are connected by a web of county roads and farm-to-market routes.
