Coulee Creek a stream of approximately 13 mi (21 km) that originates in the far western edge of Spokane County, and has its mouth at a confluence with Deep Creek, approximately 0.75 miles (1.21 km) before both creeks enter into the Spokane River. The creek flows through mostly rural agricultural areas west of the Spokane urban area, though the mouth is located within state-owned conservation land.
