The creek flows southeast into Dease River and is south of Good Hope Lake.[1] The creek was discovered in 1874 by a prospector named Harry McDame.[2]: 168 McDame Creek was mined for gold in the 19th century. A camp called Centreville contained cabins and stores and served as a trading centre for miners working on McDame Creek in the 19th century. In 1877 a 72 ounce solid gold nugget valued at $1,300 was found in McDame Creek. The solid gold nugget was found by a prospector named Al Freeman, it was the largest found in the province. This nugget was found roughly where 1st N. Fork Creek flows into McDame Creek.[3]
