About this map

Klinger Lake serves as the central focal point of this landscape on the border of Michigan and Indiana, surrounded by several distinct lakeside communities. The residential clusters of Bluff Beach, Sandy Beach, Breezy Beach, and Oakwood ring the shoreline, illustrating the long-standing recreational draw of the water. To the south, the terrain is defined by the winding courses of the Fawn River and Pigeon River, which weave through a series of smaller water bodies like Marl Lakes, Pickerel Lake, and Aldrich Lake.

Cultural and genealogical markers are found across the rural sections of the quadrangle, including the Oak Grove Mennonite Cem and Calhoun Cem. The southern edge of the map follows the Michigan-Indiana state line, showing the transition from St. Joseph County into LaGrange County. This survey documents a quiet rural-to-recreational landscape, where secondary roads like Mintdale Rd and Dickinson Rd connect isolated farmsteads to the primary corridor of Us-12.
