2013 Map of Spirit Lake SE

About this map

Arnolds Park anchors the northwestern corner of this Dickinson County landscape, representing a significant corridor of recreation and lakeside settlement in the Iowa Great Lakes region. The map details the developed shoreline near Crows Nest Resort and Orrs Campe Winakawin, where residential streets like Linden Dr and Lakeview Dr meet the waters of Milford Creek. This 2013 survey illustrates the shift from the resort-heavy lakeside to the expansive agricultural interior, characterized by a precise grid of section-line roads such as 250th St and 270th Ave. Water management is evident through features like Bull Ditch, while the natural drainage patterns of Big Muddy Creek and Little Muddy Creek meander through the southeastern plains. The presence of the Woodlyn Hills Golf Course further reflects the area's dual identity as a seasonal destination and a stable farming community.
