How to Use This Birchwood Lakes, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Birchwood Lakes, Pennsylvania. 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 Pennsylvania 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 Birchwood Lakes.

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.

About Birchwood Lakes, Pennsylvania

Birchwood Lakes is a locality in Pike County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,460. The population density is 452.1 people per km². Birchwood Lakes is located at 41.2545°N, 74.9185°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 18328.

Birchwood Lakes defines the landscape through a series of quiet, spring-fed basins that catch the pale northern light. It lies 22.7 miles northeast of Stroud, PA (from Stroud, PA: bearing 42°T), and is situated 7.7 miles southwest of Milford Pike County. The terrain here is shaped by the slow, persistent movement of water, where the stillness of Nyce Lake reflects the dense canopy of hardwoods that characterize the regional woodlands. Nearby, the water finds its way into the rugged descent of Fulmer Falls, creating a persistent, low-frequency hum that carries through the cool air of the understory. Beyond the immediate tree line, the distant silhouette of the Pocono Mountains provides a jagged, blue-gray boundary to the horizon, grounding the visual field while the proximity to Stokes State Forest ensures that the surrounding earth remains thick with pine needles and damp, dark soil.

Birchwood Lakes retains the character of a place built upon the quiet industry of the inland forest, far from the frantic pace of the urban corridor. Residents often look toward the Camp Akenac Acquisition for a sense of permanence, as the land serves as a reminder of the quiet stewardship required to maintain such an environment. While the nearby Wild Meadows offer a contrast of open, grassy expanse against the deeper timber, daily life in Birchwood Lakes remains tethered to the rhythm of the changing seasons and the occasional wanderer traversing the Flat Ridge Trail. The flow of Dingmans Creek serves as the area’s primary artery, a constant presence that has influenced the local pace for generations, favoring a life that values the clarity of the water and the deliberate silence of the woods over the clamor of the outside world.

About This Birchwood Lakes Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Birchwood Lakes, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.254538, -74.918503. 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 Birchwood Lakes includes the ZIP code (18328), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Pike County (Milford), and school district assignment (Delaware Valley 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.
