Cedar Creek (Bull Shoals Lake)

Cedar Creek is a stream in Taney County, Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of Bull Shoals Lake. The stream headwaters are in the Mark Twain National Forest on the southwest flank of Lime Kiln Mountain. The stream flows generally west and enters the lake just south of Beaver Creek Park about four miles from its source.[2]

The stream source is at 36°37′25″N 92°57′01″W / 36.62361°N 92.95028°W / 36.62361; -92.95028 and the confluence is at 36°37′24″N 93°01′30″W / 36.62333°N 93.02500°W / 36.62333; -93.02500.[1]

Cedar Creek was so named on account of cedar timber near its course.[3]
