Willis Creek is a creek in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in southern Utah. The creek runs through a wash which in some sections narrows to become a slot canyon. The creek is popular with hikers as the stream is generally 1-2 inches deep and a trail runs the length of the creek.[1] The end of the creek is dry.[1]

Willis Creek was named for William Patterson Willis, an early settler in the area.[2][3]
