2014 Map of White Cloud

About this map

The South Branch White River snakes through the heart of this landscape, feeding into Lake White Cloud near the settlement of White Cloud. This area of Newaygo County is defined by its abundant glacial lakes and streams, with Diamond Lake, Robinson Lake, and Crystal Lake dotting the wooded terrain. Much of the land is managed as part of the Manistee National Forest, where the N Country National Scenic Trail winds through the hills and hollows. Smaller communities like Ramona, Jugville, and Wooster represent the rural character of the region. Local history is anchored by sites such as Prospect Hill Cem and the White Cloud Airport, reflecting a mid-20th-century mix of recreation and infrastructure. The map reveals an intricate network of forest roads and county routes, such as State Hwy 37, that connect these isolated water bodies and small homesteads.
