Oldmans Creek, Tributary in southwestern New Jersey, United States
Oldmans Creek is a tributary that flows through southwestern New Jersey, running between Gloucester and Salem counties before joining the Delaware River. The waterway cuts through rural and developed areas, shaping the local landscape with its steady current and banks.
The waterway has served as a boundary marker between communities since early colonial settlement periods. Its stable course has shaped where people chose to build and farm in the surrounding region over time.
The creek forms an integral part of local infrastructure, connecting multiple communities while sustaining agricultural practices and recreational activities in the region.
You can reach the creek at multiple access points spread across both counties, making it easy to find an entry spot. Water levels change throughout the year, so checking conditions before visiting helps with planning your activity.
The creek originates near Glassboro, roughly one mile from where Raccoon Creek begins its own journey. This close proximity of two separate river systems creates an interesting water drainage pattern in the landscape.
