2024 Map of Negreet

About this map

Toledo Bend Reservoir dominates the western landscape of this Sabine Parish region, its complex shoreline creating numerous inlets and points near the settlement of Esto. The topography is defined by an intricate network of drainages including Negreet Creek, Brushy Creek, and Big Skinner Creek, which feed into the reservoir system. This modern survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the area, centered around small communities like Negreet and Dess. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds, such as Redland Cem and Antioch Cem, which often represent the earliest established points of settlement in the timber-rich hills. A dense web of local roads like Zion Hill Rd and Dess Rd connects these scattered homes and crossroads, reflecting the enduring residential patterns of this part of Louisiana.
