Explore Coolville, Ohio, 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 Coolville, Ohio. 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 Ohio 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 Coolville.
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.

Coolville occupies a quiet stretch of land where the Hocking River carves a deliberate path through the ancient, worn-down sediment of the Appalachian foothills. It lies 17.9 miles east-southeast of Athens, OH (from Athens, OH: bearing 114°T), and is situated 9.4 miles west-southwest of Blennerhassett. The landscape is defined by the heavy, wooded slopes of Cubbison Ridge that loom three miles to the west, casting long, bruised shadows across the valley floor as the sun dips low. To the north, the terrain softens into the quiet, hollowed earth of Bogie Hollow, while the nearby expanse of Shade River State Forest offers a dense, tangled sanctuary of oak and maple. Light here possesses a particular, heavy clarity, turning the surface of the Hocking River into a ribbon of hammered silver during the late afternoon, reflecting the stillness of a region far removed from the frantic pace of the industrial north.
Coolville maintains a measured, rhythmic existence, its economy tethered to the slow cycles of the soil and the modest commerce of the rural interior. The history of the place is marked by the persistence of those who settled the inland frontier, working the stubborn ground that sits five miles from the quiet depths of Upper Hickory Hills Lake. While the bustling corridors of higher education and professional sport thrive in larger hubs further afield, Coolville keeps to its own counsel, favoring the steady labor of local trade and the quiet maintenance of its roads and homes. On autumn evenings, the air carries a crisp, metallic scent of cooling earth, a reminder of the thousands of miles of continental landmass that separate the inhabitants from any distant reach of the sea, grounding every life in the firm, unyielding reality of the mid-continent.

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.
