2015 Map of Satsuma

About this map

The Saint Johns River dominates this region of Putnam County, winding through a complex network of islands and marshy backwaters. In the south, the community of Satsuma is situated near the shores of Lake Myra and Saratoga Lake, while the Cross-Florida-Barge-Canal cuts through the western landscape. The river creates a labyrinth of landforms, including the large Murphy Island and smaller features like Polly Island and Seven Sisters Islands. Local heritage is anchored by several sites, including the Satsuma Cem, Peniel Cem, and Palatka Memorial Gardens. Further north, the settlement of Peniel sits near Silver Lake and Mud Lake, connected by rural routes like S Moody Rd and Old Peniel Rd. The map details a landscape where riverine environments meet established settlements like Nashua and Buffalo Bluff, reflecting the importance of the river corridor for local residency and transportation.
