2013 Map of Lakewood

About this map

Chautauqua Lake dominates the northern landscape, its southern shores lined with a dense network of residential developments and summer communities including Lakewood, Celoron, and Maple Point. The transition from the lakefront to the agricultural interior is marked by numerous family-named landmarks and cemeteries, suggesting a deep-rooted lineage of land ownership. To the south, the village of Busti serves as a local hub near Stillwater Creek, surrounded by rural sites such as Knapp Cem and Bush Cem. This area reflects the mid-century evolution of the Chautauqua region, where traditional farming landscapes intersect with suburban expansion and recreational facilities like the Ridgeview Airport and the Maplehurst Golf Course. The map traces the winding paths of Hatch Creek and the Chadakoin River as they drain the upland plateaus toward the lake.
