About this map

Hardy and Ozark Acres anchor this corner of the Ozark foothills, where residential development and recreation meet the natural course of the Spring River. The 2011 landscape is defined by its water management, featuring several significant engineered barriers including the Rainbow Lake Dam, Lake Sherwood Dam, and Spring Lake Dam. These impoundments created leisure-focused communities like Vagabond Lake and Lake Sherwood, contrasting with the more traditional rural outposts of Sellers Store and Baker.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established burial grounds throughout the area, such as Richardson Cemetery, Walker Cemetery, and Pleasant Hill Cemetery. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous hollows and ridges, from Goat Ridge and Walker Ridge to the secluded Pepoon Hollow and Sawmill Hollow. This survey provides a look at the modern road network and property divisions just as the region’s recreational infrastructure had fully matured.
