About this map

Holly Lake Ranch and the eastern settlement of Shady Grove occupy this Wood County landscape, defined by a complex network of small reservoirs and creek drainage systems. The Wood-Upshur county line runs north-south along the eastern edge, where the terrain slopes toward Glade Cr. Local infrastructure is anchored by two private aviation facilities, the Holly Lake Ranch Airport and Hawk Ranch Airport, which serve the recreational and residential communities.

Water is the dominant geographic feature, with numerous named ponds and lakes such as Lake Greenbriar, Holly Lake, and Brooks Lake integrated into the neighborhood layouts. The map reveals how local roads like FM 49 and FM 2869 connect these clustered developments across the timbered tracts of East Texas. Notable natural features include Warren Swamp and the winding course of Big Sandy Cr, illustrating the hydrological character of the Piney Woods region before it transitions into more open agricultural land.
