Medicine Creek is a 96-mile-long (154 km) tributary of the Republican River in Nebraska. Medicine Creek rises in an outlying portion of the Nebraska Sand Hills near the unincorporated community of Somerset in Lincoln County and flows southeast through Frontier County to its confluence with the Republican River .5 mi (0.80 km) east of Cambridge, in Furnas County, Nebraska. About 7 mi (11 km) north of Cambridge, the Medicine Creek Dam impounds the Harry Strunk reservoir, 1,850 acres (750 ha) in area and primarily created for flood-control. A state park and recreational area is located around the dam and lower portion of the reservoir.
