Reservoir Creek is a tributary of South Branch Newport Creek in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately long and flows through Newport Township. The creek is in the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Nanticoke. Most of the land in its vicinity is forested land, but there are also some patches of developed land, agricultural land, and "disturbed" land. The main rock formations in the watershed are the Llwellyn Formation, the Mauch Chunk Formation, the Pottsville Formation, and the Pocono Formation. The main soils are the Lackawanna-Arnot-Morris series and the Udorthents-Urban Land-Volusia series. The creek is considered by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to be impaired. ==Course== Reservoir Creek begins in a valley on Little Wilkes-Barre Mountain in Newport Township. It flows east for several tenths of a mile before entering a pond and turning north. After several tenths of a mile, the creek leaves Little Wilkes-Barre Mountain and turns north-northwest, flowing along the border of Wanamie. After a short distance, it turns north and reaches its confluence with South Branch Newport Creek.〔
