The creek is roughly parallel to, and just east of, the Brazos River. Portions of the stream no longer follow their natural course[1] because in Missouri City the upper section has been partially channelized, ultimately connecting with the Brazos River via a short segment of Steep Bank Creek.[2] The lower section continues on its meandering path from about a mile southeast of Steep Bank Creek, draining into the Intracoastal Waterway near Surfside Beach.
