Paddling
The creek can be accessed from the Bently Bluff ramp. Approximately 14 miles downstream (7 miles as the crow flies) it meets up with the Ochlockonee River. Huey P. Arnold County Park can be used as a takeout spot.
The creek is windy, shuttling is necessary and there can be snags. Shorter warter craft are easier to maneuver along it.
