It is fed by various tributaries, including Beaver Creek and Little Conewago Creek. The flow providers and constituents of the creek are mainly agricultural runoff and urbanization. The streamgauge indicates that the creek has a relatively consistent flow throughout the year, with seasonal trends showing a slight increase during the spring months. The creek also has several dams, including the Conewago Dam and Long Arm Dam. An interesting fact about the hydrology of the Conewago Creek is that it has been designated as a Pennsylvania Scenic River due to its natural beauty and recreational opportunities.
