About this map

Charlotte Valley serves as the central corridor of this landscape, where Charlotte Creek winds through a series of small settlements at the border of Otsego and Delaware counties. This region preserves a rural character defined by upland peaks like Crumhorn Mtn and South Hill, while the valley floor is punctuated by historic hamlets including West Davenport, Davenport Center, and Pindars Corners. The confluence of Schenevus Creek and the Susquehanna River near Colliersville highlights the area's significance as a junction for both water and road travel.

Local history is deeply rooted in the many burial grounds that dot the hillsides and valley edges, such as the McMinn Cem and Charlotte Valley Cem. To the south, the terrain becomes more dramatic around Houghtaling Hollow, eventually leading to the small settlement of Shackport and the Tomahawk Hills Airport. These landmarks, alongside family-named features like Webb Hill and Coe Hill, offer a look at the enduring community structure of the southern Tier.
