The river is a tributary of the Tobacco River, which eventually flows into the Tittabawassee River. There are no major dams on the South Branch, but there are a few small ones that may affect flow. The river experiences seasonal trends, with higher flows in the spring due to snowmelt and rain, and lower flows in the summer and fall. One quirky fact is that the South Branch has been known to freeze completely in the winter, creating a popular ice skating spot for locals.
