The stream headwaters arise at 36°56′16″N 94°31′42″W[1] at 1,153 ft (351 m) elevation.[3] The stream flows to the northwest and passes under Missouri Route 43 just south of the community of Hornet. It passes into the northeast corner of Oklahoma and under I-44. It turns to the southwest, flows past the community of Five Mile and enters the Spring River approximately 2.5 miles south of Baxter Springs, Kansas.[2] The confluence is at 36°58′48″N 94°42′03″W at an elevation of 797 ft (243 m).[1]
The watercourse of Fivemile Creek is approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) from Neosho, Missouri, hence the name.[4] However, the headwaters of the stream are approximately nine miles northwest of Neosho and it flows to the northwest away from the city.[5]
