How to Use This Wedgewood, Michigan Map

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

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 Wedgewood, Michigan

Wedgewood is a locality in Wexford County, Michigan, United States. It is a small community with a population of 227. The population density is 140.7 people per km². Wedgewood is located at 44.1937°N, 85.4902°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. ZIP code: 49601.

Wedgewood emerges from the quiet, low-slung expanse of the Michigan interior where the air carries the sharp, resinous tang of distant pine. It lies 6.0 miles southwest of Cadillac, MI (from Cadillac, MI: bearing 228°T), and is situated 34.2 miles north of Big Rapids. Spalding Creek cuts a persistent, winding path through the local topography, its dark waters reflecting the heavy, bruised clouds that often gather before a summer storm. Only three miles away, the surface of Lake Mitchell holds the stillness of a mirror, anchored by the dense, shadowed silhouettes of the Pine River Experimental Forest that wait thirteen miles to the north. On the farthest edge of the horizon, the faint, jagged suggestion of the Ward Hills catches the amber glow of the setting sun, grounding the landscape in a vast, geologic patience that defies the frantic pace of the modern world.

Wedgewood functions as a modest waypoint for those who appreciate the silence of the inland plains, its character defined by a long-standing reliance on the timber and agricultural cycles that shaped the region’s early development. Lakewood Greens Golf Course occupies the immediate terrain, offering a manicured contrast to the rugged, untamed thickets that reclaim abandoned clearings elsewhere in the county. Life moves with the deliberate tempo of a seasonal clock, where the local economy pivots on the maintenance of these green spaces and the quiet commerce of the surrounding woodlots. Even when the morning frost turns the fields to iron, Wedgewood retains an enduring, sturdy dignity, grounded by the steady flow of the creek and the rhythmic, unadorned work of the people who call this stretch of earth their own.

About This Wedgewood Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wedgewood, Michigan. Coordinates: 44.1937, -85.4902. 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 Wedgewood includes the ZIP code (49601), telephone area code (989), county seat of Wexford County (Cadillac), and school district assignment (Cadillac Area Public Schools).

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.
