2010 Map of Waterville

About this map

Waterville sits at the focal point of this regional study, established between the waters of Tetonka Lake and the Cannon River. The town's layout is closely tied to the water, featuring the Waterville Post Office and the Tetonka Dam where White Water Creek exits the lake. This landscape is defined by its numerous family and community burial grounds, providing a dense record for genealogical research through sites like Gishville Cemetery, Sakatah Cemetery, and Calvary Cemetery. To the south, the terrain transitions into a grid of rural roads and scattered settlements like Palmer. The map tracks the winding path of the Sakatah Singing Hills Trl, following the corridor of an old rail line. Along the lakeshore, distinctive points such as Crams Point and McPete Point mark the irregular northern coast, while southern waters like Reeds Lake and Toners Lake dot the agricultural landscape.
