Cottonwood Creek is a tributary of the Cimarron River and its flow is influenced by precipitation and groundwater. The creek is not dammed, but there are several small tributaries that feed into it. The flow of the creek tends to be highest in the spring due to snowmelt and spring rain, while the lowest flows occur during the summer months. One interesting fact about the hydrology of Cottonwood Creek is that it has been studied for its potential to sustain fish populations, particularly the endangered Arkansas River shiner.
