2022 Map of Merrimon

About this map

Merrimon and the surrounding peninsula of Great Neck are defined by an intricate network of tidal creeks and marshes where the Neuse River meets the Intracoastal Waterway. This 2022 survey illustrates a landscape deeply integrated with the water, showing the convergence of Pamlico Co Pamlico Co, Craven Co Craven Co, and Carteret Co Carteret Co boundaries across open water and wetlands. The geography is marked by historic points such as Winthrop Point and Daniels Point, while the interior shows the modern residential footprint along roads like Merrimon Rd and Adams Creek Rd. The presence of the Saltwater Adventure Trail highlights the area's contemporary role as a passage for coastal recreation, even as traditional landmarks like Garbacon Shoal and Jerry Bay remain central to the maritime character of the region.
