CourseThe creek originates on Welbridge Ridge and descends initially to the west. Cedar Creek enters from the southeast, then Britain Creek from the north. It follows Sewell Road southward for about {{convert|0.5|mi|1}} to where Pepperwood Creek enters from the east, then westward about {{convert|0.6|mi|1}} to where Allen Creek enters from the southwest. It then flows generally northward. After Soda Spring Creek enters from the east, the creek crosses under Stewarts Point Skaggs Springs Road and empties into the Wheatfield Fork. Habitat and pollutionAs of 2000, House Creek and most of its major tributaries supported steelhead trout.[3] However, by 2002 the trout were so threatened that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration took action against Hedgpeth Ranch operator James Soper for killing 34 juvenile fish by driving a tractor through the creek.[4] BridgesThe Stewarts Point Skaggs Springs Road bridge was built in 1921 and widened to {{convert|34.5|ft}} in 1976. By road it is {{convert|20.8|mi}} east of State Route 1.[5] It consists of three spans, each roughly {{convert|50|ft|m|0}} long. Sonoma County bid out the seismic retrofitting of this structure in 2002.[6] See also
