About this map

The Kankakee River winds through this landscape, defining the character of southern Lake County. The town of Schneider and the community of Sumava Resorts are positioned along the river's northern banks, illustrating the area's history as a destination for recreation and river-adjacent living. To the south, the settlement of Lake Village serves as a local hub, supported by the Lake Village Airport and the nearby Lake Village Cemetery.

A complex network of drainage infrastructure, including the Singleton Ditch, Tully Ditch, and Williams Ditch, reveals the extensive engineering required to manage the wetlands and flat terrain of this region. Local history is anchored at sites like the Sanders Cemetery in the north and features like Duncan Lake, while the grid of rural roads and the diagonal path of Wicker Ave connect these scattered settlements across the marshy lowlands.
