How to Use This Canehill, Arkansas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Canehill, Arkansas. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Arkansas or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Canehill.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Canehill spreads across the verdant, undulating terrain of the Ozarks, defined by the quiet passage of Jordan Creek as it carves a path through the limestone-rich soil. It lies 17.1 miles southwest of Fayetteville, AR (from Fayetteville, AR: bearing 232°T), and is situated 6.4 miles southwest of Prairie Grove. The atmosphere holds a particular clarity, especially when the afternoon light catches the limestone outcrops or filters through the dense stands of hardwood that shroud the nearby slopes. To the distant horizon, the silhouette of Grapevine Ridge offers a jagged boundary to the sky, while the local landscape remains marked by the stillness of Cantrell Lake, which sits only a short distance away. Residents often find their way to Wayside Park, a quiet expanse of land that preserves the character of the woods, offering a place where the air feels heavy with the scent of damp earth and seasonal blooms.

Canehill retains the quiet dignity of a settlement shaped by early migration and the slow, deliberate work of agriculture that once sustained the entire valley. The economy here has shifted from the labor of the fields to a more measured existence, yet the deep history of the region remains visible in the preserved structures that speak to an era of pioneer education and community building. Beyond the immediate reach of the meadows, the terrain dips into Chambers Hollow, a reminder of the rugged, secluded geography that has long dictated the pace of life in this part of the state. Visitors and locals alike navigate a rhythm dictated by the sun and the changing seasons, moving through a landscape where the weight of the past is balanced by the simple, enduring reality of the soil beneath their boots.

About This Canehill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Canehill, Arkansas. Coordinates: 35.908693, -94.396603. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Canehill includes the ZIP code (72717, 72744), telephone area code (479), county seat of Washington County (Fayetteville), and school district assignment (Lincoln School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
