Bryant Creek (also known as Bryant River) is a stream in the Ozarks of Missouri.[1] Bryant Creek has headwaters just south of Lead Hill and Cedar Gap in southwestern Wright County and flows in a southeasterly direction through Douglas County east of Ava and joins the North Fork River in Ozark County just north of Tecumseh.[2] Tributaries include Bill Macks Creek, Hunter Creek, Rippee Creek, Fox Creek, Brush Creek, Spring Creek and Pine Creek.[2]

Bryant Creek has the name of a pioneer citizen who arrived into the area in the 1830s.[3]
