Buick Drive runs through the heart of American River, linking the historic wharf with the town’s small store and post office that sit directly on the road. The streetscape reflects the blend of early stone‑and‑timber homes, like the first house built by boat‑builder John Buick in 1844, and newer subdivisions that have appeared as the township expands.

The drive provides immediate access to the 1964 wharf, a triple‑berth boat ramp with floating pontoons added in 2008, and a waterfront café and gift shop, while essential services such as a Country Fire Service brigade, ambulance depot and community centre lie nearby. Although regular commercial air service has ended, the area remains reachable via private airstrips to the north and by road connections to nearby sites such as Mercure Kangaroo Island Lodge and Pelican Lagoon.
