Marne Creek is a stream in the U.S. state of South Dakota.[1] It is a tributary of the Missouri River and flows through Yankton County. The Auld-Brokaw Multi-Use Trail follows the creek as it travels through the city of Yankton before joining the Missouri.

Marne Creek was named Rhine Creek until Anti-German sentiment during World War I caused the present name to be selected.[2]
