Rock Creek is a creek in the south central part of the U.S. state of Wyoming and empties into the Medicine Bow River. The drainage basin of Rock Creek starts high on the north side of the Snowy Range. At the northern base of the Snowies, Rock Creek runs through the town of Arlington, Wyoming. From there Rock Creek runs primarily northeasterly before turning to the northwest and meeting with the Medicine Bow River just north of the town of Medicine Bow.
