Maps

The Saugatuck-Douglas History Center owns a large collection of maps of our communities, our county, and our state. We have several historic plat maps that show who owned land at different points in time. There are also tourist maps, insurance maps, and more. This page also contains links to useful outside map resources.

A selection of the many maps listed on the CatalogIt Hub are listed below. Some can be viewed online, others are only available for viewing in the Archives.
