About this map

The coastal plains of Craven County meet the expansive Croatan National Forest in this detailed survey. Centered on the growing city of Havelock, the landscape is defined by the heavy military presence of the Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station / Cunningham Field, which occupies much of the eastern portion of the sheet. The map illustrates the complex drainage system feeding the Neuse River, with intricate water bodies such as Slocum Creek, Tucker Creek, and Anderson Creek branching through the terrain.

Residential developments like Neuse Forest and Flanner Beach sit along the northern shore, while smaller settlements like Pine Grove and Croatan are situated along the primary transportation corridors. Significant landmarks for local history and aviation include the Hickory Hill Airport and the historic Havelock Station. To the southwest, the environment shifts toward the wetlands of Black Swamp and the large, open waters of Long Lake.
