2019 Map of Peninsula Point

About this map

The Stonington Peninsula, a narrow finger of land separating Little Bay de Noc from the broader waters of Lake Michigan, is defined by its maritime isolation and dense woodland. Within the Hiawatha National Forest, the small settlement of Stonington serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated near the western shore where Lakeview Cem overlooks the water. The geography is punctuated by numerous coastal features, from the sharp turn at Dutchman Point to the sheltered waters of Wilsey Bay. At the southernmost tip of the peninsula, the Peninsula Point Trail leads to Peninsula Point, a critical navigation landmark where the land finally yields to the hazardous Peninsula Point Shoal. Further out in the waters of Green Bay, the Eleven Foot Shoal remains a significant underwater feature for modern maritime traffic.
