Explore Woodland Beach, Michigan, 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 Woodland Beach, 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 Woodland Beach.
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.

Woodland Beach occupies a quiet expanse of flat, alluvial earth defined by the persistent, expansive presence of Lake Erie. It lies 4.6 miles east-northeast of Monroe, MI (from Monroe, MI: bearing 69°T), and is situated 6.2 miles east-northeast of South Monroe. Sunlight often catches the moisture rising from the low-lying terrain, casting a silvery, diffuse glow over the fields that stretch toward the horizon. Woodland Park provides a small, verdant anchor for the locality, offering a patch of managed green space where the wind moves through the grass with a dry, rhythmic sound. Nearby, the water of Stony Creek moves with an unhurried, heavy deliberation, carving a shallow path through the soil before it eventually loses its momentum in the broader basin of the lake.
Historical patterns of settlement in Woodland Beach reflect the broader industrial gravity of the region, where the proximity to manufacturing centers shaped the modest, utilitarian architecture of the neighborhood. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the surrounding plains and the logistics of the nearby heavy industries that define the identity of the greater region. Life here moves with a deliberate, steady pace, far removed from the clamor of dense urban cores, yet always mindful of the vast, shifting temperament of Lake Erie. Residents often observe the season’s transition by the way the air turns brittle near Stony Creek, marking the time when the fields go fallow and the landscape settles into its long, gray winter repose.

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.
