The Little River rises in northwestern
Turner County, Georgia, 7 miles (11 km) northwest of
Ashburn. The river flows southeast into
Tift County, passing west of
Tifton, then turns more southerly as it becomes the boundary between
Colquitt and
Cook counties. The river subsequently becomes the boundary between Cook and
Brooks counties, then between Brooks and
Lowndes counties. It flows into the Withlacoochee River 4 miles (6 km) west of the center of
Valdosta near the now abandoned town of
Troupville, Georgia.
Recreation
Reed Bingham State Park is a recreational area along the Little River. It includes a 375-acre (1.52 km2) lake created by a dam built in 1965 across the river.
Tributaries
Some named tributaries to the Little River include:
Warrior Creek (named after Warrior John, a
Cherokee warrior[2])
