Ashland Creek is a 5.4-mile (8.7 km) tributary of Bear Creek in the U.S. state of Oregon. It joins Bear Creek near Ashland, 21 miles (34 km) from the larger stream's confluence with the Rogue River.The main stem of Ashland Creek begins at Reeder Reservoir, an artificial impoundment of about 20 acres (8.1 ha) that provides municipal water to the city of Ashland. Two tributaries (forks) of the main stem feed the reservoir. Arising on the flanks of Mount Ashland, East Fork Ashland Creek is 5.8 miles (9.3 km) long, and West Fork Ashland Creek is 5.3 miles (8.5 km) long. The forks flow generally north through the Rogue River – Siskiyou National Forest to the reservoir.Below the reservoir, the main stem continues north through a canyon, then through a channel confined by urban development and into the broad alluvial valley of Bear Creek. The stream gradient averages about 9 percent on the upper reaches and 3 percent within the city.
