Crooked Creek is a stream in Crawford and Dent counties in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of the Meramec River.

The stream crosses under Missouri Route 19 4.5 miles southwest of Cherryville. The stream continues to the northwest flowing past Keysville and under Missouri Route M to its confluence with the Meramec 1.5 miles north of Wesco at {{coord|37|52|59|N|91|26|21|W|display=inline, title}} at an elevation of 833 feet.[1][3] Crooked Creek was so named on account of its meandering course.[4] See also
