There isn't any, that I could find on my KY Atlas/Gazetteer ... but, that doesn't mean that much, since a lot of creeks have a proper name AND a "local name" (that may be totally different).

If you know the name of any town that's close by, I could check. Otherwise, you might consider checking out Cedar Creek Lake, in Lincoln Co. It does have a good population of Crappie, albeit a little on the small size (mostly < 9 inches). They are, however, relatively easy to catch ... on minnows or jigs ... if you find a school of them. They're all Black Crappie, with a few Blacknose Black Crappie in the mix.
Herrington Lake, just North of Lincoln Co. would also be a spot to consider. It's a much tougher lake to catch Crappie from, but the size range is far better (I've caught 2lbr's from there).
Either of these lakes would be fine, if fishing from a boat .. even a small boat ... as they have good access ramps, and plenty of creek arms to get out of the way of heavy boat traffic. Unfortunately, neither one is a good choice for bank fishing. All of the surrounding land of Herrington Lake, is private property. Cedar Creek does have bank access, but it's limited and the access areas are relatively shallow water areas or the deep water timber is out of range of most people's ability to reach by casting from the shoreline. It's not so much a problem, during the Spring spawn, as the Black Crappie tend to spawn in less than 4ft of water & around the many logs & limbs that are washed into these shallow areas.
Another consideration, is that ramp use on Herrington requires paying a fee (and it varies from ramp to ramp). Cedar Creek's ramps are free to launch from.
