Flint Creek is a stream that forms in Arkansas and flows generally southwest into Oklahoma. [1] [2] It originates around Springtown, Arkansas, [3] and is impounded at Siloam Springs Lake, north of Siloam Springs, Arkansas, before crossing the Oklahoma border. [4] The creek eventually flows into the Illinois River on the eastern boundary of the town of Flint Creek, Oklahoma. [5] [2] Normally the creek is crystal clear and flows year-round. [2]
