How to get to Lake Creek, Michigan

MDNR's access file puts 1 public site on Lake Creek — 1 launch, spread over Ionia. 1 block of public land touches the river, which is where you can stand without asking — 5 acres between them, counting each unit whole rather than the part beside the water. The nearest town we map is Lowell, 7.3 miles from the river's midpoint in a straight line, with the water east of the town.

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.
