The creek receives water from several tributaries and is impounded by the Cochran Hill Dam. Seasonal trends show higher flows in the spring due to snowmelt and rainfall, and lower flows in the summer and fall. Interesting facts include that the creek was once used for transportation and commerce, but now serves mainly recreational purposes. Additionally, the South Fork Beargrass Creek Watershed is home to several endangered species, including the Kentucky arrow darter and the blackside dace.
