Pine Creek is a rural locality in the Mid North region of South Australia, situated in the Regional Council of Goyder.[4] It was established in August 2000 when boundaries were formalised for the long established local name.[7]
The Hundred of Ketchowla is a cadastral unit of hundred, the boundaries of which are exactly contiguous with the locality of Pine Creek.[4] The hundred was proclaimed by Governor William Jervois on 5 August 1880, named for an Aboriginal name of unknown origin.[10]
Ketchowla Station is named after the hundred and the station's homestead is located within Pine Creek.[7] A post office at Ketchowla opened circa 1872 and closed on 30 November 1917.[11] The Ketchowla Woolshed, Old Homestead and Outbuildings are listed on the South Australian Heritage Register.[12]
Note that there are several creeks in South Australia called Pine Creek, including a tributary that joins the River Wakefield at Undalya and forms part of the boundary between the Hundred of Upper Wakefield[13] and the Hundred of Saddleworth.[14]
