Big Creek is a stream in Shannon and Texas counties in the Ozarks of southern Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of the Current River.

The stream headwaters are in Texas County at 37°15′19″N 91°52′25″W and the confluence with the Current is in the northwest corner of Shannon County at 37°24′49″N 91°36′21″W.[1] Cedargrove lies just north of the confluence. Razor Hollow flows parallel to the lower reaches of Big Creek and enters the Current about two miles southeast of Big Creek's confluence.[2]

Big Creek was so named on account of its size.[3]
