How to Use This Coventry Lake, Connecticut Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Coventry Lake, Connecticut. 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 Connecticut 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 Coventry Lake.

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.

About Coventry Lake, Connecticut

Coventry Lake is a locality in Hartford County, Connecticut, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,823. The population density is 304.9 people per km². Coventry Lake is located at 41.7723°N, 72.3326°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 06238.

Coventry Lake holds the morning light in a basin of quiet, reflective water that mirrors the low, wooded horizon. It lies 5.0 miles west-southwest of Storrs, CT (from Storrs, CT: bearing 240°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east of Manchester. The surrounding landscape rises in modest, earthen swells toward the silhouette of Riley Mountain, where the land is defined by the thin, glacial soil and the stubborn, moss-covered stone walls that mark the boundaries of ancient pastures. To the west, the canopy of Nathan Hale State Forest stretches deep into the interior, offering a cool, shaded sanctuary where the air carries the scent of damp loam and decaying needles. Here, the geography is one of modest elevation and dense, deciduous growth, far removed from the brine of the distant coast, anchored instead by the stillness of the water and the persistent growth of second-growth timber.

Coventry Lake preserves the echoes of an agrarian past, where the rhythm of the seasons once dictated the prosperity of the small homesteads that clung to its perimeter. While the modern economy has shifted toward the quiet industry of residential life, the presence of the nearby Nathan Hale State Forest reminds the visitor of a heritage rooted in the independence of the colonial era. The landscape remains largely undisturbed by the frantic pace of larger hubs, save for the occasional ripple of a boat or the distant movement of water through Rufus Brook. Life moves with a deliberate, steady cadence, shaped by the changing colors of the hardwoods and the long, amber shadows that stretch across the water as the sun dips toward the western tree line, leaving the day to settle into the hushed, inland dark.

About This Coventry Lake Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Coventry Lake, Connecticut. Coordinates: 41.772321, -72.332581. 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 Coventry Lake includes the ZIP code (06238), telephone area code (203, 475, 860, 959), county seat of Hartford County (Hartford), and school district assignment (Coventry 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.
