About this map

Ponce de Leon serves as the focal point of this Panhandle landscape, where the waters of Jackson Spring feed into the notable Ponce de Leon Springs State Recreation Area. The surrounding area in Walton and Holmes counties is defined by a dense network of water bodies and rural landmarks, from the cypress-laden basins of Jenkins Bay and Wolf Bay to the numerous family and community churches that dot the countryside, including Knox Hill Ch and Andrew Chapel Ch.

South of the main settlement, the terrain transitions into a more secluded series of ridges and bluffs. Locations such as Camel Bluff and Yellow Bluff overlook the winding courses of Sandy Creek and the Chootawhatchee River. This 1994 update reveals a landscape of active land use, evidenced by scattered Claypits and a major utility Pipeline, while maintaining its traditional character through established crossroads like Douglass Crossroads and the historic cemetery at Hardy Cem.
