2011 Map of Ossineke

About this map

Ossineke sits at the convergence of the North Branch Devils River and South Branch Devils River as they flow into Lake Huron. This 2011 survey illustrates the coastal settlement's relationship with the water, showing the village clustered near the Ossineke Post Office and the protected waters of Squaw Bay. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, with Devils Lake in the northwest and Holcomb Creek winding through the southern reaches. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds, including the Sanborn Township Cemetery, Saint Catherine's Cemetery, and the German Cemetery, which reflect the community's early settlement clusters. Along the shore, the Ossineke Forest Campground and the offshore Sulphur Island indicate the area's use for recreation and conservation, while a dense grid of local roads like W Nicholson Hill Rd and Osineke Rd provides access to the interior woodlands and small farmsteads.
