1930 Map of South Haven

About this map

The Lake Michigan shoreline dominates this 1927 survey, showing the established port of South Haven alongside a series of growing summer communities and camps. To the south, the landscape transitions from the developed streets and Waterworks Intake of the city to the dune-heavy terrain of Van Buren State Park and Roosevelt Hills. The presence of Camp Na Wa Kwa and numerous lakefront settlements like Palisades Park and Miami Park Beach reflects the region's early 20th-century character as a premier destination for seasonal residents.
