The main flow provider of the creek is the Buffalo River, which is fed by several streams including Hickory Creek and Big Sugar Creek. The creek flows through the Ozark Plateau region and is known for its clear water and diverse aquatic life. The flow rate of the creek varies throughout the year, with peak flows occurring in the spring and low flows in the summer. There are no major dams on the creek, but small impoundments exist for recreational purposes. Interesting fact: Buffalo Creek was once a popular location for lead mining in the 1800s.
