The Little River forms in LeFlore County, Oklahoma in the very remote Kiamichi Mountains just west of the Ouachita National Forest, then flows southwest before turning south at Nashoba in Pushmataha County. The river is dammed below SH 3 in McCurtain County to form Pine Creek Lake from which it flows south through Wright City, turning east just below there and flowing south of Broken Bow along the northern boundry of Ouachita National Forest and on into Arkansas just south of Horatio in Sevier County. It then flows southeastward under US Highway 71 into Howard County where it is again dammed to form Millwood Lake. Arkansas' fabled Cossatot River flows into the Little River just above the lake on the west side of US Highway 71. The river continues in a southeast direction to the Red River confluence between McNab and IH 30 in Hempstead County, Arkansas. In Oklahoma the river flows as two reaches - the Upper Little River is above Pine Creek Lake and the Lower Little River flows out from the lake into Arkansas.
