The Little Pigeon River is a 6.0-mile-long (9.7 km)^[2] stream in Cheboygan County in the U.S. state of Michigan.

The stream rises in Koehler Township at 45°23′13″N 84°29′56″W / 45.38694°N 84.49889°W / 45.38694; -84.49889 (Little Pigeon River (source)),^[1] out of a marshy area fed by Kimberly Creek^[3] approximately one mile north of the community of Afton.

The stream flows mostly north and west into Mullett Lake at Pigeon River Bay^[4] at 45°26′29″N 84°33′21″W / 45.44139°N 84.55583°W / 45.44139; -84.55583 (Little Pigeon River (mouth)), which is nearly the same mouth as that of the Pigeon River.
