About this map

Brest Bay and the western shores of Lake Erie dominate this coastal survey of Monroe County. The landscape is characterized by its complex network of drainage ditches and creeks, such as the Webb and Reisdorf Drain and Little Swan Creek, which support a series of residential beach communities. Settlements like Woodland Beach and Detroit Beach are densely platted along the shoreline, while the southern edge transition into the city of Monroe near the mouth of the River Raisin. Significant conservation areas, including the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge and Sterling State Park, preserve the marshy lakefront between developed areas. Local history is anchored by sites such as Saint Charles Cem and Old Saint Charles Cem near Oldport, alongside the small Newport Woods Airport inland.
