Bell River is a short river in Presque Isle County in the U.S. state of Michigan.

Less than 1 mile (1.6 km) long, Bell River is entirely within Presque Isle Township and flows from an unnamed lake into False Presque Isle Harbor[2] at 45°15′24″N 83°25′00″W / 45.25667°N 83.41667°W / 45.25667; -83.41667 (Bell River (mouth)).[1] on Lake Huron approximately 9 miles (14 km) north of the city of Alpena.

Bell River, along with the unnamed lake, nearly completely separates False Presque Isle[3] from the rest of Presque Isle Township.
