The Flat River is a river in the U.S. state of Rhode Island. It flows approximately 5 km (3 mi). There are no dams along the river's length.

Course

The river is formed in West Greenwich by the confluence of Phillips and Acid Factory Brooks. The river then flows due south to Exeter where it flows into the Wood River.

Crossings

Plain Road in Exeter is the only crossing over the Flat River due to its short length.

Tributaries

Breakheart Brook is the Flat River's only named tributary, though it has many unnamed streams that also feed it.
