River Description

Updated May 7, 2001

Oatka Creek is a seasonal creek that drains into the Genesee River just south of Rochester. The creek is characterized by numerous ledges and pour-overs. Though rather tame, it features a nice surf wave, many excellent play holes and a beautiful but unrunnable 50-foot waterfall (Buttermilk Falls). Oatka Creek is most fun when run at high levels (6 feet on the Garbutt gauge).
