2019 Map of Woodland

About this map

Woodland and Coats Grove serve as the primary hubs in this agricultural and lake-rich portion of Barry County. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Thornapple River and the Little Thornapple River, which move through a mosaic of wetlands and glacial lakes. Small bodies of water like Lawhead Lake, Huckleberry Lake, and Bullhead Lake are scattered across the northern sections, illustrating the typical hydrology of rural Michigan. For those researching family history, the map identifies several distinct burial sites including the Barnum Neighborhood Cem, Fuller Family Cem, and Warner Cem. The grid of local roads, such as Coats Grove Rd and E Carlton Center Rd, connects the scattered farmsteads to the village centers, revealing a settled rural pattern that has remained consistent for generations.
