2013 Map of Waunakee

About this map

The village of Waunakee serves as the focal point of this 2013 survey, showcasing its growth northward from the northern shores of Lake Mendota. This landscape is defined by its glacial heritage, most notably at the Westport Drumlin Prairie, where the distinctive topography of the region is preserved. The map illustrates a transition from established agricultural holdings such as Maier Farms and orchards like Fabrita Orchard to suburban expansion. Waterways like the Yahara River, Sixmile Creek, and Dorn Creek drain the surrounding basin, converging toward the lake. Local infrastructure and recreational sites are well-documented, including the Waunakee Airport, Dane Airport, and Camp Indianola along the shoreline. Smaller settlements and rural junctions like Norway Grove, Kingsley Corners, and Mendota provide important geographic context for the surrounding township, while Farwells Point marks a prominent landmark on the water's edge.
