Little River is a tributary stream of Goose Creek in Fauquier and Loudoun counties in Northern Virginia.
The stream rises to the east of Marshall in Fauquier and flows nothwards along the western base of the Bull Run Mountains to Aldie, where it passes between the Bull Run Mountains and Catoctin Mountain. It then flows northward along the eastern slope of the latter mountain, joining Goose Creek 23 miles (37 km) from its source.
The Little River Turnpike (present day U.S. Route 50/Virginia State Route 231) derives its name from the stream, as its western terminus was at the Little River in Aldie where it intersected the Ashby's Gap Turnpike and Snickersville Turnpike
