2017 Map of Glenn

About this map

Lake Michigan forms the western boundary of this coastal Allegan County landscape, where the primary arterial Blue Star Hwy facilitates travel between established settlements like Ganges and Glenn. The interior reflects a grid of local roads and family-named landmarks that trace the region's agricultural and social history. Several burial grounds, including Hutchins Cem and Plummerville Cem, are preserved near the shoreline and surrounding the community of Grange Corners. Water features such as Hutchins Lake and the wetlands of Mud Lake Swamp illustrate the diverse hydrology of the Lake Michigan shelf. Smaller hamlets like Pier Cove and Shorecrest dot the bluff line, while the southern reaches near Spring Grove are drained by Ockford Drain, showing the deliberate management of the land for residential and farming use during the early 21st century.
