Omena and the surrounding Leelanau Peninsula shoreline are documented here as they appeared in 2019. The map details a landscape defined by its relationship with Lake Michigan, featuring prominent coastal landmarks like Omena Point and Bellow Island in the middle of Grand Traverse Bay. The settlement patterns show established clusters at Northport, Ahgosatown, and the tribal community of Peshawbestown. Genealogists will find several burial grounds noted, including Omena Cem, the Omena Presbyterian Cem, and the Immaculate Conception Catholic Cem near the southern boundary. The interior is a network of local roads such as Ingalls Bay Rd and N West Bay Shore Dr, weaving around freshwater bodies like Mougeys Lake and Bass Lake. These features reveal a coastal region balancing its agricultural heritage with its identity as a lakeside retreat.
