2017 Map of Freedom

About this map

The shore of Lake Huron and the inland waters of northern Michigan define this landscape along the border of Emmet and Cheboygan Counties. The settlement of Freedom sits near the coastline, where the N Central State Trail follows the path of an old rail corridor toward the Straits. This area is characterized by an extensive network of wetlands and small lakes, including Mud Lake, Penny Lake, and Malony Lake, which drain through waterways like Mill Cr and Mud Cr. Further west, the community of Carp Lake borders the large expanse of Lake Paradise, a significant local landmark. The presence of Hebron Cem and the naming of Hebron Town Hall Rd reflect the established local history of the township, while a dense grid of secondary roads such as Hebron Mail Route Rd and Old Mackinaw Rd connects the scattered homesteads and marshes.
