The Pigeon River is part of the Lake Huron watershed in Michigan in the United States. It is one of many rivers that have their headwaters in Otsego County. The Pigeon River's headwaters start just north and east of Gaylord, Michigan, at the Otsego Club and Resort. From there the river flows north 47.4 miles (76.3 km) through private land and the Pigeon River Country State Forest to Mullett Lake. Much of the Pigeon River is classified by the Michigan Department Natural Resources (DNR) as a blue ribbon trout stream[2] with special fishing regulations to conserve and enhance the trout fishery. The Pigeon is also a designated Natural River[3] with special regulations regarding development along its banks.
