Explore Stillwater, New Jersey, 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 Stillwater, New Jersey. 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 New Jersey 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 Stillwater.
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.

Stillwater anchors the rural landscape of northern New Jersey, where the Paulins Kill carves a steady, winding path through the verdant, low-lying fields. It lies 10.7 miles north-northeast of Warren, NJ (from Warren, NJ: bearing 12°T), and is situated 6.7 miles west-southwest of Newton. Swartswood State Park encompasses the immediate surroundings, providing a sprawling expanse of protected timber and open water that preserves the quietude of the region. To the northwest, the jagged silhouette of the Kittatinny Mountains rises against the horizon, anchoring the view while the earth remains dominated by limestone outcroppings and fertile, dark soil. The light here at dusk possesses a peculiar, amber quality, catching the mist that gathers where the woods meet the open meadow, lending the air a heavy, cooling weight that lingers long after the sun has dipped below the trees.
Stillwater retains the remnants of its agrarian origins, once defined by the rhythmic labor of milling and the steady commerce of small-scale farming that relied upon the consistent flow of the nearby water. While the economy has shifted away from the gristmills of the past, the influence of those early settlers remains visible in the sturdy, weathered architecture that punctuates the roadsides. Residents often traverse the distance toward the more rugged terrain near Pahaquarry Flat or seek the solitude of Mud Pond, keeping the pulse of daily life tethered to the natural cycles of the forest and the changing seasons. Even as the modern pace of the state encroaches from the periphery, Stillwater maintains a deliberate, measured stillness, grounded by the quiet persistence of its history and the enduring character of its landscape.

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.
