Mikes Creek is a stream in Barry and McDonald counties of the Ozarks of southwestern Missouri.[1]

The stream flows southwest paralleling Missouri Route U then turns west to its confluence just northwest of Powell.[2]
Some say Mike's Creek was named after an elderly settler named Mike, while others believe the name is a corruption of Michael, the surname of Phillip Michael, a pioneer citizen.[3]
