2019 Map of Stag Park

About this map

The Northeast Cape Fear River dominates this Pender County landscape, winding through a complex network of wetlands and creek systems including Burgaw Creek and Holly Shelter Creek. This 2019 survey captures the rural character of the region, where historical settlements like White Stocking and Shelter Neck persist alongside newer infrastructure. The layout of the land is defined by large tracts of undeveloped terrain interspersed with pockets of habitation such as Walkers and Plear. A notable aviation hub, the Stag Air Park, is situated near the Stag Park community, reflecting the area's modern land use. Local history is etched into the road names, with routes like Old Blakes Bridge Rd and Old Maple Hill Rd tracing the paths of earlier transit networks through the river lowlands. This map provides a clear record of the area's hydrology and contemporary settlement patterns.
