Whites Creek begins as a south flowing stream on the south side of Table Rock Knob just southeast of Ava and flows south for a short distance before turning east. The stream runs parallel to Missouri Route 14 and is bridged where the road turns south. Hoffmeister Spring emerges from a bluff along the north side of the stream a few hundred yards east of the bridge at 36°54′51″N 92°33′12″W and an elevation of 892 feet.^[3][4]

Whites Creek has the name of a pioneer citizen with the surname White.^[5]
