1958 Map of Lakeport

About this map

Lakeport anchors the western shore of Clear Lake in this late 1950s survey, a time when the community's footprint was concentrated around Brewery Hill and the waterfront. The map captures the agricultural transition in Scotts Valley and Big Valley, where numerous pumphouses and gaging stations suggest a landscape managed for water. Local infrastructure is well-defined, including the Union High School, Lakeside Hospital, and the County Fairgrounds. To the north and south, the Scotts Valley Rancheria and Big Valley Rancheria mark important cultural sites, while the Hartley Cemetery provides a key point of reference for genealogists. The terrain rises sharply to the west into the Mayacmas Mts, defined by features like McGregor Ridge and Scotts Mtn, while the lakeshore is punctuated by points such as Willow Pt and Rocky Pt.
