Indian Camp Creek is a stream in northeast Warren County and northwest St. Charles County in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of Big Creek.

The stream headwaters arise just south of Interstate 70 and 1.5 miles east of Truesdale. The stream flows north and east passing under Missouri Route J and is impounded south of the Incline Village Golf Course at the Warren-St. Charles county line. The stream turns north and enters Big Creek at the St. Charles-Lincoln county line just west of US Route 61.[2]

Indian Camp Creek was named so named on account of an Indian settlement near its course.[3]
