The Suzie River crosses the townships Jalobert, Bourgmont, Bongard, Logan and Bernier.

The Suzie River flows entirely on forest land north-east of the La Vérendrye Wildlife Reserve and on the west side of Gouin Reservoir.

The latter lake in turn flows into the Nottaway River, a tributary of the southeastern shore of James Bay.

A series of dykes and canals have been built in these two rivers in order to carry out the diversion of the waters.

The toponym "Suzie River" was inscribed on December 5, 1968, at the "Bank of Place Names" of the Commission de toponymie du Québec, when it was created.
