2011 Map of Stephenson

About this map

Stephenson and Daggett anchor this Menominee County landscape, situated along the north-south transport corridor defined by the Little Cedar River. The area is marked by a significant concentration of local burial grounds, including the Danish Cemetery, Bethlehem Covenant Cemetery, and North Stephenson Cemetery, reflecting the immigrant heritage and community centers of this Upper Peninsula region. In the northern reaches, Hays Creek and Hugos Brook drain into the river valley, while the Stephenson Lookout Tower stands as a landmark of forest management history. Rural life centers on small hubs like Palestine and Ingalls, each served by its own post office, such as the Daggett Post Office and Stephenson Post Office. Recreational landmarks like Peterson Park and the Indian Hills Golf Course sit alongside the winding river, which remains the primary geographical feature shaping the settlement pattern between these small Michigan townships.
