How to Use This Peninsula, Ohio Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Peninsula, 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 Peninsula.

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.

Peninsula emerges from the dense, verdant folds of the landscape where the Cuyahoga River carves a slow, deliberate path through the earth. It lies 5.5 miles south-southwest of Macedonia, OH (from Macedonia, OH: bearing 205°T), and is situated 8.2 miles north-northwest of Cuyahoga Falls. The air here holds a heavy, damp stillness, caught in the deep basin of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, where the light at dusk filters through thick canopies to turn the forest floor a bruised, quiet violet. To the west, the ground rises in subtle, rhythmic swells toward Reeds Hill, while the water of the Cuyahoga River reflects the shifting gray of the sky, mirroring the slow transition of seasons across the woodlands. Four miles to the north, the waters of Lake Forest remain a calm, distant presence, untouched by the steady, winding movement of the currents that define the local topography.

Peninsula retains the weathered character of a place built upon the movement of goods and the labor of industry, having long served as a vital junction for the canal trade that once dictated the pace of life. Where barges formerly navigated the locks, Peninsula now hosts a slower commerce, driven by the preservation of its heritage and the quiet influx of those seeking the solace of the surrounding woodlands. The legacy of these early builders persists in the brick and timber structures that line the center, standing as mute witnesses to a time when the economy relied on the muscle of men and the steady flow of the waterway. Today, the rhythm of Peninsula remains tethered to the natural cycle of the park, a steady, unadorned existence that values the permanence of the land over the fleeting ambitions of the modern world.

About This Peninsula Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Peninsula, Ohio. Coordinates: 41.241167, -81.552618. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Peninsula includes the ZIP code (44264), telephone area code (440), county seat of Summit County (Akron), and school district assignment (Woodridge Local School District).

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.
