2013 Map of Summertown

About this map

Summertown and the surrounding Lewis County countryside are defined by a complex network of waterways where the Buffalo River begins to take shape. The landscape is characterized by the confluence of the N Fork Buffalo River and S Fork Buffalo River, winding through areas like Wyrick Hollow and past the heights of Rockdale Hill. A distinct grid of numbered roads, including 1st Rd through 5th Rd, suggests a planned agricultural or residential layout in the northern section near Big Swan Cr. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of how rural Tennessee infrastructure integrates with its natural hydrology, from the recreational waters of Miller Lake and Pine Lake to the sharp elevation of Rattlesnake Falls near the settlement of Rockdale. Local landmarks like Carpenter Spring and Kidd Spring highlight the region's reliance on natural spring sources throughout the central uplands.
