How to Use This Chase, Michigan Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Chase, Michigan. 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 Michigan 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 Chase.

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.

Chase is a locality in Lake County, Michigan, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 5.0 people per km². Chase is located at 43.8892°N, 85.6356°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. ZIP codes: 49623, 49323.

Chase anchors itself firmly within a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the Middle Branch Pere Marquette River, which winds its path through the terrain less than a mile from the residential center. It lies 27.6 miles south-southwest of Cadillac, MI (from Cadillac, MI: bearing 205°T), and is situated 6.3 miles west of Reed City. The land here remains defined by its inland character, a stretch of earth where the air holds the scent of damp pine and cold, dark soil. To the west, the expansive growth of Manistee National Forest provides a dense, emerald backdrop, its deep thickets beginning almost at the edge of the local tracks. The light at dusk settles over the fields in a thin, pale gold, illuminating the way the ground slopes toward the basin of Deer Lake. Even from a distance, the presence of such a significant body of water influences the climate, tempering the late afternoon chill that often creeps across the meadows.

History in Chase carries the lingering weight of the timber era, when the surrounding woods fed the mills and provided the primary engine for early settlement. While the frantic pace of the logging days has long since receded, the local economy continues to draw its vitality from the land, shifting from the raw extraction of the past to a more measured stewardship of the woods and waterways. Residents move through their days with a steady, deliberate focus, acknowledging the quietude that comes from living so close to the vast, protected reaches of the Manistee National Forest. Far from the influence of any distant mountain range, the horizon remains open and unassuming, punctuated only by the occasional silhouette of a distant grain silo or the jagged edge of the treeline. Life in Chase finds its rhythm in the seasonal cycles of the river, a constant movement that mirrors the patience of a region that has learned to thrive in the stillness of the interior.

About This Chase Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Chase, Michigan. Coordinates: 43.889182, -85.63561. 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 Chase includes the ZIP code (49623, 49323), telephone area code (989, 616), county seat of Lake County (Baldwin), and school district assignment.

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.
