The Sabine River serves as the central artery and natural border for this region, winding through a complex system of backwaters including Patterson Slough, Long Slough, and Ashworth Slough. The landscape is defined by its water-bound geography, featuring large islands like Wembly Island and various lakes such as Alligator Lake and Indian Lake. Settlement patterns follow the higher ground near the river, with the community of Deweyville on the western bank and Starks situated to the east, connected by the Evangeline Hwy.
