About this map

Ocean Park and the surrounding Long Beach Peninsula landscape are defined by a dense corridor of coastal settlements and a complex network of freshwater lakes. This 2011 survey shows the established residential grid from Nahcotta in the north down through Klipsan Beach and Oceanside, revealing how development occupies the narrow strip of land between the Pacific Ocean and the intricate sloughs of Willapa Bay. The map documents numerous family-named landmarks and historical properties, such as Loomis Ranch, Rasmason Ranch, and Adamson Ranch, reflecting the area's agricultural and homesteading roots.

The hydrology of the peninsula is particularly striking, with a string of narrow, north-south oriented water bodies including Loomis Lake, Island Lake, and Cranberry Lake tucked behind the primary dunes. These lakes, alongside Pauls Slough and Giles Slough, illustrate the unique drainage patterns of this coastal environment. Local services and tourism infrastructure are also noted, ranging from the Ocean Park Post Office to seasonal destinations like Pegs Recreational Vehicle Park.
