Bennett Creek is easy to miss as it is here only a fifteen-foot-wide brook meandering about a pastoral bottomland. This is a scenic cruise, passing mostly through farmlands until you reach I-270 and then it is mostly through woodlands. You will pass striking rock formations, well-preserved old houses, and Sugarloaf Mountain stands lonely in the distance. There are many little riffles over gravel bars and a few broken ledges. Fallen trees and logjams are common but are usually navigable. There is a low-water bridge just below Little Bennett Creek and a dam just below Park Mills Road which need to be carried. Take-out is about a quarter mile down the Monocacy River at Lilypons Road bridge.
