Explore Peebles, 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 Peebles, 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 Peebles.
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.

Peebles emerges from the limestone bedrock of southern Ohio, defined by the quiet persistence of Shimer Run as it carves a path through the landscape. It lies 26.6 miles northwest of Portsmouth, OH (from Portsmouth, OH: bearing 304°T), and is situated 11.5 miles east-northeast of Wayne Township Adams County. The horizon is marked by the distinct, humped silhouette of Tater Ridge, which serves as a constant, looming sentinel over the fields. Two miles to the west, the quiet expanse of Mineral Springs Lake holds the sky in its reflective surface, while the nearby Plum Run Prairie/Morgan's Fork Woods/Rocky Fork Creek Acquisitions preserves a segment of the raw, uncultivated earth. The air here holds a particular weight, smelling of damp soil and ancient stone, especially when the sun dips low and casts long, thin shadows across the uneven terrain.
Peebles carries the weight of a history rooted in the soil, where the economy has long oscillated between the rhythms of agriculture and the extraction of local minerals. Residents look toward the distant shadows of Polk Hollow for a sense of depth in the land, a reminder of the geological forces that shaped this region long before the first homesteads were cleared. Life in Peebles moves with a deliberate, measured cadence, far removed from the frantic pace of industrial centers, finding its focus in the seasonal harvest and the maintenance of the homestead. Even the distant, cascading water of Cedar Falls provides a subterranean pulse to the region, a subtle reminder of the deep, hidden currents that flow beneath the calm surface of this inland life.

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.
