How to Use This Cottrellville, Michigan Map

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

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.

Cottrellville occupies a stretch of fertile, level terrain defined by the quiet persistence of the Marine City Drain as it carves a path through the dark, loamy earth. It lies 10.1 miles east of New Baltimore, MI (from New Baltimore, MI: bearing 84°T), and is situated 5.5 miles north-northeast of Clay. The landscape remains defined by its inland composure, where the horizon stretches flat and wide under a sky that shifts from bruised violet to pale amber as the sun dips behind the distant tree lines. Five miles to the east, the expansive waters of Lake Saint Clair temper the air, bringing a subtle moisture to the breeze that drifts across the fields. Residents find a quiet refuge at King Road Park, where the tall grasses sway in rhythm with the seasons, and the gentle, slow movement of the land serves as a reminder of the vast, quiet space that defines this corner of the interior.

Cottrellville carries the weight of a settlement forged by the labor of those who turned the soil and harnessed the land’s natural drainage to sustain their livelihoods. The rhythm of the local economy remains tethered to the patterns of the harvest and the steady, unsentimental pulse of regional agriculture, grounding the inhabitants in a tradition of self-reliance. While the Saint Clair Flats lie some miles away, influencing the regional topography, the focus here stays fixed on the local crossroads and the endurance of the homesteads that first claimed this territory. Life moves with the deliberate pace of a long-settled place, where the history of the soil is acknowledged in the quiet diligence of the people who continue to work the land, mindful of the generations who walked these same paths before them.

About This Cottrellville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cottrellville, Michigan. Coordinates: 42.697435, -82.539191. 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 Cottrellville includes the ZIP code (48039), telephone area code (313), county seat of St. Clair County (Port Huron), 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.
