Kettle Creek is a creek in Elgin County in southwestern Ontario, Canada that empties into Lake Erie at Port Stanley.[1] It drains an area of 520 square kilometres (200 sq mi). Dodd Creek is the major tributary.[2]
Kettle Creek flows through parts of London, Ontario and St. Thomas, Ontario.[2] Most of the watershed is used for agriculture. During dry summers, water shortages can be experienced. Kettle Creek adds a significant amount of phosphorus to Lake Erie.[1]
Some of Ontario's rare remaining stands of Carolinian Forest are in the Kettle Creek watershed.[3]
