2017 Map of South Canton

About this map

Allatoona Lake dominates the central landscape of this Cherokee County study, its irregular shoreline reaching into the valleys formed by the Etowah River and Little River. The map documents the residential growth south of Canton and north of Woodstock, where subdivisions like Victoria and Univeter are established near the water's edge. Family history is preserved in localized sites such as Knox Cem and Brooks Cem, which remain as markers of the area's rural heritage amidst modern road networks like Deer Track Rd and Veterans Cemetery Rd. In the southern reaches, the corridor between Holly Springs and Lebanon shows a transition toward more dense settlement, while geographic landmarks like Gold Mill Ridge and Mosquito Flats define the underlying topography that shaped early land use before the lake's inundation.
