2011 Map of Rush Lake

About this map

The southern shoreline of Lake Huron defines this section of Huron County, where the sprawling Rush Lake lies just inland from the coast. The landscape transition from the sandy northern banks at Little Oak Point to the agricultural interior is marked by a grid of rural roads and watercourses like the Pigeon River and Pinnebog River. Notable for local historians and genealogists, the map identifies several distinct burial grounds, including Saint Felix Cemetery, Chandler Township Cemetery, and McKay Cemetery, providing precise locations for family research. Public lands and recreation areas are prominent along the coast, specifically at the Albert E Sleeper State Park Campground and several county parks including Oak Beach County Park. Small settlements like Gotts Corners anchor the rural intersections, while the meandering path of Bad Axe Creek cuts through the southeastern corner of the quadrangle.
