About this map

Sam Houston National Forest blankets much of this San Jacinto County landscape, where the wooded uplands meet the western reaches of Lake Livingston. The area is defined by a series of drainages, including Stephen Creek, Big Spring Creek, and Dobbins Creek, all flowing toward the reservoir. While the lake dominates the eastern edge, the interior remains characterized by small rural settlements like Willow Springs and Point Blank.

Genealogists will find several family-named burial sites across the terrain, such as Mount Zion Cem and Harrell Cem. The road network preserves historical nomenclature with routes like Stage Coach Rd and Morris Creek Rd winding through the forest. To the south, the East Fork San Jacinto River marks the lower boundary, while the residential development at Cape Royale signifies the more modern recreational turn of the lakeshore.
