About this map

Lakehills and the intricate shoreline of the Medina River dominate this modern survey of the reservoir and its surrounding hill country. The landscape is defined by its deep coves and named points, reflecting decades of residential development and recreational access since the original damming of the river. Features like Mormon Bluff and Sawmill Cove hint at the earlier human activities and land use that predated the high-water line of Medina Lake.

The complex geography of the area is illustrated through numerous named inlets such as Blue Bill Cove, Elm Cove, and Milligan Cove. These features, along with landmarks like Devils Bluff and Walton Island, provide specific spatial markers for property research and local history. The map also traces the drainage patterns of Spanish Oak Cr and Brushy Cr, showing how the rugged terrain feeds into the central basin.
