How to Use This Retreat, Texas Map

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

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.

Retreat occupies a quiet expanse of North Texas where the land settles into a series of modest, sun-bleached elevations and broad, open horizons. It lies 15.6 miles south-southwest of Cleburne, TX (from Cleburne, TX: bearing 199°T), and is situated 17.8 miles east-southeast of Glen Rose. The landscape is defined by the presence of Falls Branch, which carves a modest path through the earth just a mile away, feeding the thirsty soil that sustains the local flora. To the west, the silhouette of Bee Mountain rises with a stoic, limestone permanence against the sky, while the deep depression of Owl Hollow creates a natural sanctuary for the shifting winds. At the Whitney Point Recreation Area, the stillness of the terrain is punctuated only by the movement of tall prairie grasses, their seed heads catching the amber light of late afternoon in a display of ephemeral gold.

Retreat maintains a slow, deliberate pace that reflects its history as a place of agricultural patience and modest endurance. The economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the land and the proximity of regional resources, including the expansive waters of Lake Whitney nearby, which serve as a focal point for the broader ecological character of the region. Life here is not hurried by the frantic demands of urban density, but instead follows the seasonal shifts of the Texas climate, where the heat of summer gives way to a tempered, dry autumn. While those seeking more vigorous exploration might look toward the distant Cleburne State Park Trail, the residents of Retreat prefer the quiet gravity of their own fields, finding a sense of belonging in the honest, unadorned stretches of dirt and sky that have defined this locality for generations.

About This Retreat Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Retreat, Texas. Coordinates: 32.048448, -96.476909. 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 Retreat includes the ZIP code (76627, 75110), telephone area code (325, 214, 469), county seat of Hill County (Hillsboro), and school district assignment (Corsicana Independent 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.
