About this map

The Lackawaxen River flows through the heart of this Wayne County landscape, anchoring the namesake community of White Mills. This region is characterized by a high concentration of recreational and community infrastructure, notably seen in the cluster of seasonal camps like Camp Munsee, Camp Moshava, and Camp Navajo near Beach Lake. The settlement pattern reflects a deeply rooted rural society, with numerous houses of worship such as St Bernards Ch and Bethel Ch serving dispersed hamlets like Berlin Center and Laurella.

Industrial and local utilities are evident near East Honesdale, where a Quarry and Gravel Pit sit near the corporate boundary. The natural geography is defined by a series of glacial water bodies, including Open Woods Pond and Lake Constance, which are interspersed with agricultural land and wooded ridges like Vine Hill. This late-century survey documents the persistent character of these Pocono-fringe communities before modern development altered the rural fabric.
