No site in MDNR's access file falls on Mills Creek, and no public block fronts it either — the way in is a road crossing, or asking the owner. The nearest town we map is Roscommon, 36.6 miles from the river's midpoint in a straight line, with the water south-east of the town.
| Town | Distance | Direction to the river |
|---|---|---|
| Roscommon | 36.6 mi | south-east |
| Grayling | 48.4 mi | south-east |
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.
