The stream originates near the Sonoma-Napa county line, about 0.6 miles (1.0 km) north of the northern Bald Mountain summit. It descends first to the west and then to the south, emptying into Sonoma Creek just west of Sugarloaf Ridge State Park.

As of 2000, Bear Creek supported steelhead trout.[3]
