About this map

The Au Sable River and Old Au Sable River flow through this section of the Michigan coastline, defining the geography of Oscoda and Au Sable. The landscape is a mix of protected woodlands within the Huron National Forest and coastal residential development concentrated along the Lake Huron shoreline. Genealogists will find several burial grounds mapped here, including Sacred Heart Cem, Pinecrest Cem, and the Au Sable Township Cem further south.

Transport and infrastructure are central to the area's layout, from the Oscoda-Wurtsmith Airport in the west to the cluster of roads near Lincoln Junction. The presence of Loud Island in Van Etten Lake and the various creeks like Phelans Cr and Van Etten Creek illustrate the water-dependent nature of Iosco County's development. Residential patterns are visible through numerous named drives and trails, such as Stage Coach Rd and Arrowhead Rd, which wind between Cedar Lake and the primary coastal route of Us-23.
