The Mosse River originates between two mountains, 0.5 kilometres (0.31 mi) southeast of Lac Breeches and 1.3 kilometres (0.81 mi) southwest of route 263. Its source is located near the municipal boundary of Saint-Jacques-le-Majeur-de-Wolfestown.
From its head, the Moose River flows over:
1.1 kilometres (0.68 mi) south-east to Breeches Road;
2.2 kilometres (1.4 mi) south-east, then east, to its mouth.[1]
The Moose River empties on a long strand on the west shore of Moose Bay which forms an appendage of lake Aylmer through which the St. Francis River crosses. Its confluence is located 0.7 kilometres (0.43 mi) north of the confluence of the Longue Pointe stream, at 1.6 kilometres (0.99 mi) south of the confluence of the Bourgeault stream and at 2.9 kilometres (1.8 mi) (direct line) from the intersection of route 161 and route 112 at village of Beaulac-Garthby.
The resort is particularly developed around Moose Bay.
