Sutton Creek is a tributary of the Susquehanna River in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, in the United States.

The Elisha Atherton Coray Mill, which operated along the banks of the creek, is on the Historic American Buildings Survey.

It flows east-southeast and east-northeast for several tenths of a mile, passing through two lakes and entering Franklin Township.

From the eastern end of the lake, the creek flows east-southeast for a few tenths of a mile before turning northeast.

After a few tenths of a mile, the creek enters Exeter Township, where it turns southeast and then east-northeast.

The creek then meanders southeast for some distance before turning north-northeast and crossing Pennsylvania Route 92.

[1] Sutton Creek joins the Susquehanna River 203.30 miles (327.18 km) upriver of its mouth.

[2] At its mouth, the peak annual discharge of Sutton Creek has a 10 percent chance of reaching 1,570 cubic feet per second (44 m3/s).

[3] Upstream of the confluence of Cider Run, the peak annual discharge of Sutton Creek has a 10 percent chance of reaching 905 cubic feet per second (25.6 m3/s).

[6] The surficial geology along the floor of the valley of Sutton Creek in its lower reaches mainly consists of alluvium.

[10] The surficial geology alongside the creek continues to feature alluvium as far upstream as Lake Louise.

However, in the watershed's upper reaches, Wisconsinan Till and bedrock consisting of sandstone and shale are more common.

[2] The portion of the watershed that is upstream of the tributary Cider Run has an area of 5.46 square miles (14.1 km2).

A two-span bridge carrying State Route 1037 was built over the creek in Franklin Township at Lake Louise in 1940.

A concrete culvert bridge carrying State Route 1033/Bodle Road was constructed over the creek in Exeter Township in 1962.

In 1999, a prestressed box beam or girders bridge with a length of 32.2 feet (9.8 m) was built and carries Pennsylvania Route 92 over the creek in Exeter Township.

[16] A reach of 3.8 miles (6.1 km) of the creek was also historically stocked with trout by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission.

However, in 1999, the reach of the creek was removed from the stocking program due to a rise in the frequency of landowner posting.

Other macroinvertebrates included five mayfly genera, the midge family Chironomidae, and the scud genus Crangonyx.
