Mink Creek also known as Otskonoga Creek and Trout Brook is a river in northern Otsego County, New York. It begins west-northwest of the Village of Richfield Springs and flows northeast into an unnamed swamp. It then exits the swamp and flows south before converging with Canadarago Lake southwest of the Village of Richfield Springs.[2] The Iroquois name for the creek is Otskonoga.[3]
