The rapids are right below here. Rapids is a bit of an exaggeration, more like faster moving water and a bit of a drop, but not recommended to run a canoe over.
Outside of Aldrich on Streeter Lake Road – Coffin MIlls which is somewhat near Fine/Cranberry Lake in the Northwestern Adirondacks there is an old railroad grade, which has been converted to a seasonal use road that has designated campsites. Below is an interactive map, printable map and coordinates of campsites along Streeter Lake. There also is an accessible lean-to on Streeter Lake that can be accessed via an old woods road that is gated.
