MDNR's access file puts 1 public site on Comins Creek — 1 launch, spread over the counties it runs through. 2 blocks of public land touch the river, which is where you can stand without asking — 116,722 acres between them, counting each unit whole rather than the part beside the water. The nearest town we map is Roscommon, 29.7 miles from the river's midpoint in a straight line, with the water east of the town.
| Town | Distance | Direction to the river |
|---|---|---|
| Roscommon | 29.7 mi | east |
| Grayling | 32.6 mi | east |
| Gaylord | 38.4 mi | south-east |
| Alpena | 39.8 mi | south-west |
Straight-line distance from the river's midpoint, and the direction you would travel from the town to reach it. The roads are not mapped here, so there is no drive time — a travel time nobody measured is the kind of number that gets somebody lost.
