Pataula Creek is a stream in Clay, Quitman, Randolph and Stewart counties in the U.S. state of Georgia.[1] It empties into Walter F. George Lake[2] on the Chattahoochee River.

Pataula is a name most likely derived from the Muskogean language meaning "flat".[2] Variant names are "Petaula Creek" and "Petewlah Creek".[1]
