Bryant Creek (also known as Bryant River) is a stream in the Ozarks region of Missouri, United States. Bryant Creek has headwaters just west of Lead Hill and southeast Cedar Gap in southwestern Wright County and flows in a southeasterly direction through Douglas County east of Ava. It joins the North Fork River in Ozark County just north of Tecumseh and within the waters of Norfork Lake.[2] Its tributaries include Bill Macks Creek, Hunter Creek, Rippee Creek, Fox Creek, Brush Creek, Spring Creek and Pine Creek.[2] Bryant Creek is named after a pioneer citizen who arrived in the area in the 1830s.[3]
