Explore Red Creek, New York, 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 Red Creek, New York. 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 York 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 Red Creek.
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.

Red Creek carries the namesake of the dark, iron-rich waters that wind through the low, marshy basin of this northern landscape. It lies 13.6 miles west-northwest of Lysander, NY (from Lysander, NY: bearing 282°T), and is situated 8.9 miles southwest of Hannibal. The terrain here is defined by a slow, deliberate flatness, where the earth gives way to dense thickets and hidden wetlands that eventually drain toward the broad, slate-colored expanse of Lake Ontario, just five miles to the north. Within the borders of Red Creek, the air retains a damp, heavy quality, particularly during the transition of seasons when the humidity rising from the coastal lowlands meets the cooling influence of the Great Lakes. The Red Creek Village Lands offer a quiet expanse of preserved earth, providing a buffer of wild vegetation that keeps the encroaching modern world at a distance, allowing the local flora to dictate the texture of the horizon.
Economic life in Red Creek has long been tethered to the rhythm of the soil and the proximity of the water, drawing sustenance from the fertile, albeit stubborn, upstate earth. The history of the settlement is etched into the modest architecture of its core, where the influence of early agricultural labor remains visible in the sturdy, utilitarian frames of the older structures. Though the distant Appalachian Mountains exert no physical pressure on this level topography, their presence is felt in the way the weather patterns shift, often funneling cold air across the fields toward the nearby harbor of Little Sodus Bay. Residents move through their days with a steady, unadorned focus, maintaining a legacy of industry that favors the endurance of the land over the fleeting ambitions of the city, while looking out toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Grass Island as it sits isolated upon the water.

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.
