Flat Creek is a stream in Barry and Stone counties of southern Missouri. [3] It is a tributary of the James River.
The stream source is north of Washburn and the confluence is with the James River arm of Table Rock Lake north of Cape Fair. [3] [4]
From its headwaters near Washburn, the stream flows northeast parallel to Missouri Route 37 passing through southeast Cassville. It continues to the northeast until meeting Little Flat Creek south of McDowell. The stream then flows to the southeast past Jenkins and under Missouri Route 248.
