How to Use This Reedsville, West Virginia Map

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

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.

Reedsville occupies a high, quiet plateau where the air holds a sharp, clean clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the surrounding hardwood timber. It lies 11.5 miles south-southeast of Cheat Lake, WV (from Cheat Lake, WV: bearing 165°T), and is situated 9.0 miles southeast of Brookhaven. Kanes Creek cuts a narrow, winding path through the local topography, its presence marked by the low, insistent rush of water over moss-slicked stone that echoes through the quiet morning. Beyond the immediate clearing, the land folds into the deep, shaded quiet of Long Hollow, where the shadows grow long and violet as the sun retreats behind the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains. Reedsville Park offers a central clearing of grass and light, providing a measured space where the pace of the afternoon slows to the steady, rhythmic ticking of a clock, and the light at dusk settles over the fields in a pale, amber wash that turns the gray fence posts to gilded silhouettes.

Reedsville maintains a character forged by the steady, industrious spirit of a place that understands the weight of its own history and the quiet dignity of its labor. The local economy has long shifted from the heavy, soot-stained legacy of coal-camp life toward a varied reliance on regional agriculture and the steady, unassuming trade of a mountain crossroads. Residents often look toward the broader expanse of the landscape, occasionally venturing toward the quiet, deep-water stillness of Cheat Lake or the dense, towering canopy of Coopers Rock State Forest to find a respite from the daily grind. Life in Reedsville moves with a deliberate, unadorned gravity, sustained by a deep-seated independence that values the solidity of the earth and the enduring, honest labor of those who work the soil and timber of these hills.

About This Reedsville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Reedsville, West Virginia. Coordinates: 39.510641, -79.798392. 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 Reedsville includes the ZIP code (26547), telephone area code (304), county seat of Preston County (Kingwood), and school district assignment (Preston County 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.
