2013 Map of Ovid

About this map

Ovid serves as the central hub of this Seneca County landscape, situated on the narrow finger of land between the deep waters of Seneca Lake to the west and Cayuga Lake to the east. The village structure is well-defined by its historic burial grounds, including the Old Ovid Village Cem and Union Cem. To the north, the sprawling footprint of the Seneca Army Depot dominates the terrain, featuring an extensive grid of tactical roads like Bundle Ammo Pack Rd and S Patrol Rd. Along the eastern lakeshore, small settlements like Sheldrake Springs and Poplar Beach are carved out by seasonal drainages such as Bloomer Cr and Powell Cr. The map captures a blend of military infrastructure, agricultural crossroads at Hayt Corners and Coan Corners, and lakeside recreation at Sned Acres Family Campground.
