2019 Map of Onsted

About this map

Irish Hills rise across the center of this landscape, anchoring a lake-rich region on the border of Jackson and Lenawee Counties. The glacial terrain is defined by a dense cluster of water bodies including Wamplers Lake, Vineyard Lake, and the winding River Raisin. Small lakeside settlements like Sunset Beach and The Heights suggest a long-established recreation and residential pattern centered on these shores. Local history is grounded in numerous community sites, from the crossroads at Cambridge Junction to several burial grounds like Cambridge Junction Cem and Springville Cem. The map reveals a transition from the village of Brooklyn in the northwest to the organized streets of Onsted in the south, connected by a network of rural roads that navigate around large wetlands and deep-water lakes like Deep Lake and Wolf Lake.
