About this map

Conecuh National Forest defines the northern edge of this landscape, where the Alabama-Florida state line meets the intersection of Escambia, Santa Rosa, and Okaloosa counties. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including the southward-flowing Sweetwater Creek and Big Juniper Creek, which feed into the wetlands surrounding Goose Pond. Local travel in this rural corridor is anchored by Belandville in the northwest and Beaver Creek in the southeast, connected by established routes such as Belandville Rd and Beaver Creek Rd.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Hobbs Cem situated near Rock Creek, while aviation interests may find the Blackwater Airfield a notable landmark in the southwest. Recreational and natural features like Hurricane Lake and the Florida National Scenic Trl highlight the area's role as a managed timber and wildlife territory, with family-named roads like Charles Booker Rd and Ralph Boyette RD suggesting the long-standing community ties to the land.
