About this map

Port Inland serves as a focal point along the northern shores of Lake Michigan, where the industrial interface of the Inland Harbor meets the natural drainage systems of the Upper Peninsula. This 2011 survey illustrates a coastline defined by prominent geographical landmarks such as Hughes Point and Seiners Point, which separate the river mouths and marshlands from the open water.

Further inland, the landscape transitions into a network of wetlands and small lakes, including Swan Marsh and Batty Doe Lake. The hydrology of Newton Township is well-defined by the paths of the Milakokia River, Seiners Creek, and Swan Creek. Roads such as Batty Doe Lake Rd and Baker Rd provide the primary access to these remote coastal reaches, showing the limited but critical infrastructure supporting the region's shoreline activities.
