Santa Ysabel Creek rises in the northeastern corner of the San Dieguito River watershed and flows west, creating Lake Sutherland. It then flows out of the lake's dam and westwards for the rest of its course. Its total length is about . Santa Maria Creek, the smaller of the two streams, begins near the city of Ramona and flows northwards about through the Ramona Grasslands and Bandy Canyon.〔 A third fork, Temescal Creek, rises in the Cleveland National Forest near Lake Henshaw and flows south about into Santa Ysabel Creek. From there the river flows west past the city of Escondido, and under Interstate 15 before being impounded by the Lake Hodges Dam to form Lake Hodges.
