2019 Map of White Mills

About this map

The Lackawaxen River corridor defines the southwest portion of this quadrangle, where the industrial hamlets of White Mills and Indian Orchard sit at the intersection of water and historic turnpikes. This landscape reflects a deep history of transport and trade, evidenced by the Honesdale and Delaware Tpke and the Owego Tpke, which cut across the plateaus above the river valley. To the east, the terrain rises toward Vine Hill and Rattlesnake Ridge, giving way to a high-country environment of small lakes and ponds including Beach Lake and Suydam Pond. The settlement pattern is dispersed, with small nodes like Bethel and Laurella connected by winding roads like Carley Brook Rd and Bunnell Pond Rd, while the Vine Hill Cem remains a quiet landmark of the local community.
