2014 Map of Westwood

About this map

The boundary between Antrim Co and Kalkaska Co divides this landscape of glacial lakes and river headwaters in northern Michigan. The settlement of Westwood sits in the northwestern corner, defined by a grid of local routes like Plum Valley Rd NE and Westwood Rd NE. To the south, the village of Darragh is situated near Lake Five and the expansive Manistee Lake. This region is a critical hydrological divide where the Rapid River flows westward while the N Br Boardman River begins its course to the southwest. Genealogists may find interest in the Cold Spring Cem located along Darragh Rd, while many smaller water bodies such as Wheeler Lake, Farrar Lake, and Lake of the Woods suggest the area's transition into a more densely forested and lake-strewn wilderness.
