Mormon Lake Map
The Mormon Lake maps below shows the roads and streets around this unique South of Flagstaff community. The Mormon Lake map below shows a road (Forest Road 240) from I-17 to Mormon Lake. Forest Road 240 (Mormon Lake Road) is unpaved. It's a slow and bumpy road between Munds Park (Pinewood) and Mormon Lake. In wet weather Forest Road 240 can also get muddy. To get there from Phoenix by paved roads stay on I-17 to the south edge of Flagstaff and exit onto Lake Mary Road. Turn right, and take Lake Mary Road south about twenty five miles to the south Forest Road 90 intersection. Turn right to Mormon Lake Village. If you turn at the first (north) FR 90 intersection, you'll take the long way around the lake.
There are other ways of getting to the area that involve going through Camp Verde or Payson, but most people use I-17 to Flagstaff and then south on Lake Mary Road. Those traveling from the Mesa area go through Payson, Strawberry, and Clints Well. This route approaches Mormon Lake from the south, and is not shown on these maps. It's my understanding that Mormon Lake is the only natural lake in Arizona. As you will read on other websites, it's for sure the largest natural lake in Arizona The Mormon Lake community was originally established by Mormon settlers as a dairy farming region in the 1870's. Companion industries included a sawmill and tannery. Half a century later, the Mormon Lake community was playing a prominent regional role in logging and Forest Service activities, as well as ranching.
As the ranching and timber industries of the late 1800's became established in the surrounding area, the community became an attractive way-station for locals and visitors alike. The Mormon Lake map below shows a more detailed view of the roads and streets in the Mormon Lake Village community. There are other homes and cabins scattered around the area and not shown on this map.
