Elizabethtown and the surrounding Bladen County landscape are defined by the winding course of the Cape Fear River, which carves through a region of complex wetlands and low-lying basins. To the east of the river, distinctive bay features like Cotton Head Bay, Round Pond Bay, and Rice Pond Bay characterize the local geography, alongside elevated landmarks such as Big Sugar Loaf and Little Sugar Loaf. The settlement pattern follows a network of rural roads connecting small communities such as Mount Olive, Bluefield, and Lisbon.
