Chaska Creek is a stream in Carver County, Minnesota. It is a tributary of the Minnesota River. The creek itself has three tributaries, two small unnamed creeks and Chaska East Creek. Chaska East Creek is measured as a separate watershed. The mouth of the river is located in Chaska, Minnesota.

Since 1997, the creek has been considered as polluted by Coliform.[1]

Between 2017 and 2023, an effort was made to re-meander the creek to improve the ecosystem of the creek and reduce water speeds.[2]
