Explore Peach Creek, West 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 Peach Creek, West 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 West 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 Peach Creek.
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.

Peach Creek defines the narrow, serpentine corridor where the earth buckles into steep slopes and deep, shadowed hollows. It lies 36.0 miles south-southwest of St. Albans, WV (from St. Albans, WV: bearing 195°T), and is situated 16.1 miles southwest of Madison. The morning light here does not merely illuminate; it spills over the jagged skyline of the distant Appalachian Mountains, filtering through dense canopies of oak and poplar to reach the water’s edge. Peach Creek itself moves with a deliberate, low-voiced persistence, carving a path through the sandstone and shale that characterize this rugged terrain. Within the immediate vicinity, Peach Creek Park offers a quiet expanse of green where the air remains heavy with the damp, mineral scent of the forest floor, marking a space where the dense woodland yields briefly to the human footprint.
Industry in Peach Creek remains anchored to the deep-seated history of the coalfields, a legacy that lingers in the quietude of the shuttered tipples and the enduring resilience of those who call these hills home. The economy has transitioned from the frenetic pace of the extraction era to a slower, more contemplative existence, where the daily rhythm is dictated by the passage of the sun across the ridges. Two miles away, the quiet stillness of Boardinghouse Hollow serves as a reminder of the generations that labored within these narrow confines to build a life from the black seams beneath the soil. While Ridge View Twin Lakes sits further out, the water in the region remains a vital, grounding presence, mirroring the overcast skies and the steady, unpretentious resolve of the people who continue to organize their lives around the cycles of this land.

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.
