2024 Map of Oakman

About this map

Oakman and the surrounding North Georgia hill country are defined by the winding course of the Coosawattee River and the significant hydraulic engineering at the Reregulation Reservoir. This landscape is marked by the meeting of several county lines, including Murray, Gordon, Gilmer, and Pickens, which converge amidst the ridgelines and creek valleys. Historically significant sites such as Hopewell Church and the Shady Grove Baptist Church Cem serve as long-standing community anchors for local families. The map illustrates the transition from the upland heights of Blalock Mountain down to the fertile bottoms along Talking Rock Creek and Redbud Creek. Small settlements like Colima, Sweden, and Petersburg are linked by a network of rural roads such as Nicklesville Rd and Old Hwy 411, reflecting the area's agricultural and timber-based spatial organization.
