Mill Creek Lake is a 51-acre water tucked into the Old Forge area — a region dense with small lakes and ponds that tend to get overshadowed by the bigger destinations like the Fulton Chain. No fish survey data on record, which usually means either light stocking pressure or none at all, though small Adirondack lakes in this zone often hold resident brookies or perch populations that don't show up in DEC records. Access and launch details are elusive — check with local marinas or the Town of Webb office for current conditions. This is classic Old Forge territory: forested shoreline, likely private camps mixed with undeveloped stretches, and the kind of quiet water that pays off if you're willing to do the legwork.
