About this map

Richwood serves as the central settlement on this 2010 map, situated where the Buffalo River flows through a landscape defined by glacial lakes and wetlands. The region's hydrography is notably managed by water control structures, including the Buffalo Lake Dam and Little Floyd Lake Dam. The terrain is interconnected by a network of county highways and local roads such as Whiskey Creek Dr and Chippewa Shore Rd, which provide access to numerous recreational and residential areas around water bodies like Buffalo Lake and Floyd Lake.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of community landmarks throughout the townships. Four distinct burial grounds, including Holmesville Township Cemetery, Bakke Lutheran Cemetery, Buffalo Lake Cemetery, and Lund Cemetery, are dispersed across the quadrangle, marking long-established local family roots. The area remains a hub for seasonal activity, anchored by the Buffalo Lake Campground and the residential clusters lining the shores of Little Floyd Lake and Spring Lake.
