About this map

Lake Michigan dominates this coastal landscape where the border of Muskegon and Ottawa counties meets the eastern shoreline. The map focuses on the slender strip of dunes and residential development perched between the great lake and the interior. Small residential corridors like N Shore Dr and N Shore Estates Rd follow the north-south orientation of the coast, reflecting late-twentieth-century residential patterns along the waterfront. To the north, the transition from open water to shoreline is marked by the presence of Little Black Lake, which sits just inland from the primary beach ridge. Local access is defined by specialized roads such as Hoffmaster Dr, providing a look at the infrastructure required to manage the delicate topography of the Lake Michigan dunes.
