Jack Creek (Des Moines River Tributary)

Jack Creek is a 64-mile-long (103 km) stream in southern Minnesota in the United States. It is a tributary of Heron Lake, the outlet of which flows to the Des Moines River.

According to Warren Upham, Jack Creek was probably named for the jackrabbits near the creek.
