Indian Creek (Fall Creek)

Indian Creek is a stream in Marion County, Indiana, in the United States.[1] It is a tributary of Fall Creek.

Indian Creek was so named from the fact that Native Americans used the area as a camping ground.[2]

A 60-acre (24 ha) reservoir named Indian Lake was created by the construction of a dam on the creek in 1929.
