2016 Map of Goodview

About this map

Smith Mountain Lake dominates the southern landscape of this Virginia survey, where the borders of Bedford and Franklin counties meet among a complex network of coves and inlets. The terrain is defined by prominent ridges such as Board Mtn and Kasey Mtn, which overlook the growing community of Goodview and the smaller settlements of Meador and Diamond Hill. The map reveals a high density of family and community burial sites, including the Basham Cem, Ellis-Blankenship Cem, and the Booth-Joplin Cem, providing essential geographic markers for genealogical research in this part of the Piedmont. Extensive secondary roads like Goodview Rd and Old Plantation Rd navigate the undulating valley floor, connecting historic farmsteads with the modern lakeside developments at Westlake Corner.
