Roaring Brook begins in Harris Pond in Ross Township. It flows for a few miles in a shallow valley before exiting Ross Township. Upon leaving Ross Township, the stream enters Hunlock Township.〔 It gradually turns southeast, passing by several ponds or small lakes before turning south-southeast flowing through the community of Roaring Brook.〔 A short distance downstream of Roaring Brook, the stream receives its only named tributary, Lewis Run, from the left. The stream then turns southwest for a short distance and enters a much deeper and narrower valley. It this valley, it turns south-southeast for more than a mile before it reaches its confluence with Hunlock Creek.〔
Roaring Brook joins Hunlock Creek upstream of its mouth.
