2014 Map of Rush Lake

About this map

Saginaw Bay and Lake Huron define the northern boundary of this Huron County landscape, where the shoreline transition includes Little Oak Point and the coastal waters of Oak Point Lake. Inland, the terrain is dominated by a grid of agricultural land and managed waterways, including Rush Lake and the Rush Lake Drain. The drainage patterns are further defined by the Pigeon River to the west and the Pinnebog River to the east, which winds toward the coast near Bad Axe Cr. This 2014 survey documents the enduring rural structure of Lake and Chandler Townships, with family and local history preserved in the Saint Felix Cem, McKay Cem, and the Chandler Township Cem. The road network, including State Park Rd and Port Austin Rd, reflects the area's development as a gateway to Michigan’s Thumb region.
