About this map

Holton and Brunswick anchor this western Michigan landscape where Muskegon, Newaygo, and Oceana counties meet. The area is defined by an intricate network of waterways and lowlands, including the broad Cushman Swamp and Horseshoe Lake in the north. Numerous drains such as the Poll Drain, Markle Drain, and Dobie Drain illustrate the long-standing effort to manage the water table in this agricultural and timbered region.

Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved across the township lines, notably Holton Cem, Saint Michaels Cem, and the remote Wilde Cem. Recreational use is evident along the Horseshoe Motorcycle Trail which winds through the northern sections. Small crossroads settlements like Reeman and Sitka further characterize the rural township layout, while larger bodies of water like Crystal Lake and Unger Lake dot the western edge near Holton Rd.
