No site in MDNR's access file falls on Little Cedar Creek, so the way in is public ground and road crossings rather than a marked landing. 2 blocks of public land touch the river, which is where you can stand without asking — 15,532 acres between them, counting each unit whole rather than the part beside the water. The nearest town we map is Newaygo, 15.3 miles from the river's midpoint in a straight line, with the water west of the town.
| Town | Distance | Direction to the river |
|---|---|---|
| Newaygo | 15.3 mi | west |
| Sparta | 22.2 mi | north-west |
| Cedar Springs | 27.7 mi | west |
| Rockford | 30.1 mi | west |
Straight-line distance from the river's midpoint, and the direction you would travel from the town to reach it. The roads are not mapped here, so there is no drive time — a travel time nobody measured is the kind of number that gets somebody lost.
Ownership from PAD-US as the state publishes it. Where a block has its own page, the name links to it.
