House Creek (California)

House Creek is a 12.3-mile-long (19.8 km)[2] stream in the mountains of western Sonoma County, California which empties into the Wheatfield Fork Gualala River.

The creek originates on Welbridge Ridge and descends initially to the west.

It follows Sewell Road southward for about 0.5 miles (0.8 km) to where Pepperwood Creek enters from the east, then westward about 0.6 miles (1.0 km) to where Allen Creek enters from the southwest.

[4] The Stewarts Point Skaggs Springs Road bridge was built in 1921 and widened to 34.5 feet (10.5 m) in 1976.
