Explore Magnet Cove, Arkansas, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Magnet Cove, 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 Magnet Cove.
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.

Magnet Cove occupies a geological curiosity where the earth seems to have folded upon itself in an ancient, igneous shrug. It lies 6.6 miles north-northwest of Malvern, AR (from Malvern, AR: bearing 344°T), and is situated 12.5 miles east-southeast of Hot Springs. Stone Quarry Creek cuts a persistent, winding path through the basin, its waters moving with a quiet gravity that dictates the local topography. The land here is defined by thick woodlands of pine and hardwood, where the sunlight at dusk filters through the canopy in long, amber needles, illuminating the peculiar mineral-rich soil that has long intrigued those who walk its perimeter. To the west, the distant rise of Shinn Mountain provides a steady, silent anchor to the horizon, while the proximity of Lake Catherine and the quiet expanse of Long Hollow suggest a landscape shaped more by the slow, deliberate work of water and time than by the frantic pace of the outside world.
Magnet Cove maintains a character defined by its extraordinary concentration of rare minerals, a legacy that has quietly influenced the local economy since the early years of settlement. Where other regions might rely on vast, uniform industries, the people here have long looked to the ground beneath their feet, recognizing a distinct geological heritage that differentiates the area from the surrounding plains. Life follows the rhythms of the seasons, often spilling over into the nearby Lake Catherine State Park, where the air remains cool and heavy with the scent of damp earth. The presence of the creek and the dense, varied timber creates a quietude that persists even as the day-to-day work of the region continues, grounding the inhabitants in a place that feels simultaneously ancient and remarkably singular.

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.
