Haw Creek
Haw Creek originates in several branches draining the wet flatwoods of north Volusia County and south Flagler County. The creek flows through a cypress swamp before entering Crescent Lake.
The lower stretch of this waterway is surrounded by Haw creek Preserve State Park. Paddling access for canoes and kayaks can be found at Russell Landing Flagler County public boat ramp at the end of county Road 2007. Access can also be found at a Bull Creek Fish Camp on Dead Lake at the end of county road 2006.
