Rock Creek Flowage Dam, located in Clark County, Wisconsin, was completed in 1969 and is primarily used for recreation purposes. Managed by a private owner, this earth dam stands at a height of 16.2 feet with a hydraulic height of 9 feet, creating a reservoir with a maximum storage capacity of 340 acre-feet. The dam spans 860 feet in length and has a controlled spillway with a width of 35 feet, capable of discharging up to 350 cubic feet per second.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the dam's condition assessment in 2020 rated it as fair. The risk assessment for the dam is very high, emphasizing the importance of regular inspections and maintenance to ensure its continued safety and functionality. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is responsible for regulating and inspecting the dam, which is situated on Rock Creek. With its scenic location and recreational opportunities, Rock Creek Flowage Dam serves as both a vital water resource and a popular destination for water and climate enthusiasts in the region.
