Creosote is a community of Bainbridge Island, Washington, along Eagle Harbor. It is directly visible from the downtown Bainbridge Island community of Winslow, and is so named because of the manufacturing of creosote at the now-defunct Pacific Creosoting Company in the area. Creosote is an industrial zone on Bill Point. As such, it is considered somewhat of an eyesore by locals. There are also homes in the nearby Old Creosote Hill area, although attempts to avoid association with the potentially poisonous have resulted in most streets in this area being named Bill Point.
