As Andrew Jackson’s army retreated back to Fort Strother after its encounter at Emuckfau Creek, the Red Sticks attacked them as they crossed Enitachopco Creek on January 24, 1814. The battle centered on the Red Sticks’ determined, but unsuccessful, attempts to capture Jackson’ s artillery.

Enitachopco Creek is northeast of Horseshoe Bend and meanders through Tallapoosa and Clay Counties. The exact location of the battlefield is unknown and there is no marker to commemorate the event. The creek can be accessed northwest of Goldville, Alabama, from a county road that runs off Highway 49.
