Wilson Creek is a town in Grant County, Washington, United States.

[3] The area around Crab and Wilson creeks were inhabited by Native American peoples until the arrival of settlers in the late 19th century.

The town was originally known as "Nanum Creek" and was renamed after one of the first pioneers to the area, who settled there in 1886.

[5] When Grant County was created in 1909, Wilson Creek was its largest town with around 600 people.

Despite the slowing of growth, Wilson Creek established a port district in March 1960.

The Port of Wilson Creek is home to an airport, which was renovated in 1984 and again in the 2000s when updates were made to the 3,074-foot (937 m) runway.

Just west of town along Crab Creek are Billy Clapp Lake and the Pinto Dam, both of which are part of the extensive Columbia Basin Project.

[7] According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 0.96 square miles (2.49 km2), all of it land.
