Nicasio Creek is a stream in Marin County, California, United States which feeds into Lagunitas Creek. The Nicasio Reservoir is located on this stream.

Course

Originating on Big Rock Ridge west of the city of Novato, Nicasio Creek descends initially to the south. Approaching Lucas Valley Road, it turns and follows the road as it winds westward, passing south of Skywalker Ranch to the town of Nicasio. North of Nicasio, it feeds into Nicasio Reservoir just as Halleck Creek enters from the east. The reservoir drains to the west, through a gap in Bolinas Ridge. From the dam, Nicasio Creek parallels Point Reyes-Petaluma Road westward about 1 mile (1.6 km), then empties into Lagunitas Creek. It was dammed in 1961 by Seeger Dam [1]
