About this map

Lake Michigan dominates the western half of this shoreline survey, defining the coastal character of Fruitland Township. Along the eastern edge, a string of lakeside communities including Wabaningo, Michillinda, and Sylvan Beach sit between the big lake and the inland waters of White Lake. The landscape is defined by the transition from open water to protected harbors and small inland basins like Muskrat Lake and Duck Lake.

Local history is anchored by Duck Lake Cemetery and the protected lands of Duck Lake State Park. This 2011 record shows the modern road network, including Scenic Dr and Michillinda Rd, which serve the residences and vacation properties that have long characterized this stretch of the Michigan coast. Small tributaries such as Strawberry Creek and Duck Creek drain into the larger lake system, illustrating the hydrology of the Muskegon County shoreline.
