2014 Map of Three Oaks

About this map

Three Oaks serves as the central hub for this portion of Berrien County, situated just north of the Michigan-Indiana state line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Galien River and its various tributaries, including Beaverdam Cr and Dowling Cr, which drain the agricultural and wooded lands. Smaller communities such as New Troy, Avery, and Galien are connected by a grid of rural roads like W Kruger Rd and W Pulaski Hwy. The map provides significant detail for genealogists, marking several burial sites including Riverside Cem, Forest Lawn Cem, and the more isolated Germinder and Ward Graves. The presence of Benedick Airport and water bodies like Klutes Lakes and Lake Louise reflect the mix of light aviation and recreation that characterizes this borderland region in the early 21st century.
