About this map

The village of Saranac serves as the central hub of this 2017 study of the Grand River valley in Ionia County. The Grand River flows through the landscape, flanked by the Fred Meijer Grand River Valley Trail, which follows an old railroad alignment through the heart of the settlement. To the east, the Ionia Rec. Area encompasses Sessions Lake and an extensive network of multi-use trails, including the Chief Cob-Moo-Sa and Horse and Ski trails.

Genealogists can identify significant burial sites such as the Saranac Cem and White Cem, while the southern reaches of the map show the rural community at Berlin Center. The terrain is defined by its water bodies, from Morrison Lake and Peck Lake in the south to Cahoon Lake in the north. The area's agricultural character is preserved in the network of county roads like Potters Rd and Sayles Rd, which cross various tributaries including Lake Cr, Red Cr, and Bellamy Cr.
