It passes under U.S. Route 101 just before reaching the bay.[3] Named tributaries of Drift Creek from source to mouth are Nelson, Fowler, Barn, Smith, Sampson, Wildcat, and North creeks. Then Quarry, Odell, Bluff, Gordey, and Anderson creeks.[3] Covered bridgeUntil being dismantled and destroyed in 1997 and rebuilt over Bear Creek, a Salmon River tributary to the north and further inland, the Drift Creek Bridge was the state's closest covered bridge to the ocean.[4] Drift Creek Park, managed by Lincoln County, remains open at the former bridge site along South Drift Creek Road. It consists of posted information about the bridge and directions to its new location.[5] RecreationHikingDrift Creek Falls Trail leads {{convert|1.5|mi|km}} from the Drift Creek Trailhead along Forest Road 17 to a {{convert|240|ft|m|adj=on}} suspension bridge overlooking Drift Creek Falls. The waterfall is {{convert|75|ft|m}} high.[6] FishingDrift Creek supports populations of cutthroat trout, steelhead, and Chinook salmon. According to Fishing in Oregon, this creek and a Drift Creek in the Alsea River watershed are important in efforts to restore anadromous fish runs in Oregon. The stream has limited road access, and angling in the upper reaches requires hiking via Drift Creek Trail or logging roads. Much of the angling is catch-and-release.[7] See also
