Explore Stewartsville, Virginia, 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 Stewartsville, Virginia. 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 Virginia 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 Stewartsville.
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.

Stewartsville occupies a landscape where the earth rises in slow, deliberate swells, defining a horizon that feels both expansive and intimately contained. It lies 8.2 miles east of Roanoke, VA (from Roanoke, VA: bearing 90°T), and is situated 9.6 miles east-southeast of Hollins. The air here holds the weight of the inland summer, a humid stillness that softens the edges of the distant Appalachian Mountains, which loom forty-two miles away like a muted, charcoal-colored promise. Nearby, the quiet progress of Nat Branch cuts through the terrain, its course marked by the deep green of riparian growth, while the expansive waters of Smith Mountain Lake offer a vast, reflective stillness just two miles to the south. The light at dusk settles across these fields with a particular amber clarity, turning the long grasses to bronze before the shadows of the woods lengthen and pull the world into a cool, quiet gray.
Stewartsville maintains a pace that favors the steady labor of the soil and the quiet persistence of those who work it, reflecting a regional economy rooted in agriculture and the slow, necessary rhythms of rural life. History resides here not in monuments, but in the enduring patterns of the land, where the proximity to Explore Park preserves a sense of the wilderness that once defined these reaches. The topography remains marked by natural features like the secluded reaches of Pocket Hollow and the sudden, crystalline descent of Falling Rock Falls, serving as reminders of a geography that dictates the flow of local movement. Life in Stewartsville persists with a dignified reserve, a place where the seasons dictate the schedule and the land continues to provide a foundation for those who call it home.

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.
