Grand Traverse Bay and Lake Michigan define this coastal landscape, where the Old Mission Peninsula reaches north between the deep waters of the bay's east and west arms. The settlement of Old Mission remains a focal point on the peninsula, featuring the nearby Lakeside Cem and Bagley Lake. Across the water to the east, the village of Elk Rapids sits at a strategic hydraulic junction where the Elk River connects Elk Lake to the Great Lakes. This modern survey illustrates the dense network of local roads and trails, such as Old Mission Road and Joe Marks Trail, that navigate the ridges and lowlands. Between the primary settlements, smaller communities like Kewadin and natural landmarks like Birch Lake and Meguzee Point highlight the established residential and recreational character of the Antrim and Grand Traverse county border.
