2012 Map of Spencer Lake

About this map

Lake Huron dominates the eastern expanse of this coastline, where the shoreline bends sharply at Au Sable Point. This coastal landscape in Iosco County is defined by the transition from the Great Lake to the smaller, inland Spencer Lake. A network of local corridors, including Forest Rd and Ausable Point Rd, provides access to the residential and seasonal developments clustered along the waterfront. These roads, such as Hilltop St and Gowen Rd, reflect the organized expansion of shoreline communities near the water's edge, balancing the dense forest cover of the interior with the prominent maritime geography of the Michigan coast.
