About this map

Lake Huron and the South Channel define the northern boundary of this Cheboygan County shoreline, where seasonal coastal life meets the inland woods. The settlement at Point Nipigon serves as a focal point for the region, connected by historic thoroughfares like Old Mackinaw Rd and Inverness Trail Rd. Along the coast, small landings and residential clusters such as Grand View and Pries Landing illustrate the area's development as a maritime gateway and retreat.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant sites of interest, most notably the Sailors and Indians Cemetery situated near the lake and Pine Hill Cemetery located further inland near Lahaie Rd. The drainage of the Little Black River and the West Branch Little Black River dominates the central landscape, while the presence of the Cheboygan City-County Airport near the southeastern corner signals the area's modern infrastructure.
