2011 Map of Pontchartrain Shores

About this map

Saint Martin Bay dominates the southern reaches of this Mackinac County landscape, where the waters of Lake Huron meet the forested shoreline at Pontchartrain Point. The inland terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways including the Pine River, Nunns Creek, and Rock Spring Creek, which cut through the level topography. Human settlement is clustered around Pontchartrain Shores and the community of Simmons, the latter associated with the Simmons Cemetery. To the west, near the shore, the Indian Village Cemetery reflects the cultural history of the area. The presence of the Daggett Lookout Tower near Simmons Rd highlights the region's managed forest character. Small inland bodies of water like Cedar Lake and Round Lake sit near the eastern boundary, connected by a system of local routes such as Fish Rd and Saint Ignace Rd.
