2011 Map of Trufant

About this map

Trufant and Gowen anchor this portion of Montcalm County, centered on a glacial landscape defined by dozens of kettle lakes. The settlement of Trufant is clustered around Muskellunge Lake, featuring its own post office and cemetery. To the south, Gowen sits along the winding Flat River, which carves a distinct path through the southeastern corner of the map. The area's cultural history is reflected in names like the Little Denmark Cemetery, hinting at the heritage of early settlers who established these communities. Notable recreational and community spaces like Camp Anna Behrens, Pleasant Hill Camp, and the Brookside Golf Course occupy the land between the water bodies, while a dense grid of rural roads such as W Waterwheel Rd and Coral Rd connects the scattered lakeside residences and farmsteads.
