About this map

Lake Erie defines the northern coastline of this Ottawa County landscape, where the Toussaint River and Rusha Creek drain into the lake's southwestern basin. Near the shore, the residential enclaves of Long Beach and Sand Beach sit adjacent to Locust Point, a locale featuring the Locust Point Cemetery and Witts Orchards. This area highlights the transition from Lake Erie's maritime influences to the inland agricultural and civic life of the township.

Further south, the community of Lacarne serves as a central point for local infrastructure, housing the Lacarne Post Office and the Ottawa County Home. The southern reaches of the map are bound by the Portage River and Little Portage River, which flow near the Ottawa County Fairgrounds. Notable institutional landmarks include the military grounds of Camp Perry and the Lacarpe Cemetery, providing significant points of interest for genealogists and local historians.
