2013 Map of Hustburg

About this map

Kentucky Lake dominates this landscape along the Tennessee River, where the water has reshaped the local topography and commerce. In the northern reaches, the community of Hustburg sits adjacent to the Duck River Dewatering Area, a managed landscape that borders the fertile Upper Big Bottom and Lower Big Bottom. This survey documents a river-centered economy that persists through numerous historic access points, including Sycamore Landing, Cuba Landing, and Lees Point Landing. These landings, along with family-named terrain features like Swader Hollow and Carroll Hollow, provide essential geographic markers for those tracing the history of local river travel and settlement. Further south, the map details the terrain around Sinkhole Ridge and the small residential pockets of Maple Acres and Strawberry Gables, illustrating how the region has transitioned from traditional bottomland farming toward contemporary rural residential life.
